Reign Ministries is a non-denominational mission organization based in Minneapolis. Fueled by over 30 years of unbridled enthusiasm for students, Reign has successfully discipled youth and trained youth workers to minister in their local church and abroad. We passionately believe such disciples will be tomorrow's history makers for Christ.
OUR MISSION
We are building and advancing the kingdom of God by developing youth and youth leaders who have great commandment hearts and live great commission lifestyles.
OUR VISION
Fueled by nearly forty years of unbridled enthusiasm, both for teenagers and the local church, we have discipled youth and trained youth workers for a lifetime of ministry. Our vision is to:
Expose students to the world's burning need for a Savior,
Equip them to meet that need through discipleship,
Ignite in them a passion to serve and
Send them home to be actively involved in ministry and impact their world for Christ.
OUR HISTORY
As a youth pastor, Revered Louie Inks wanted his students to experience a mission trip overseas, but he was unable to find an organization that emphasized discipleship and evangelism the way he envisioned. So in 1980, he organized and led the trip himself. He found that this 8-week summer mission trip had a profound impact on the lives of his students, in part because of the focus on ministry, emphasis on discipleship, all in an environment outside their comfort zone. Louie founded Reign Ministries in 1981 and the first official Royal Servants mission trip was launched in 1982. That trip was composed of 44 students and staff, over half of whom, amazingly, later became involved in full-time vocational ministry. Reign Ministries was a result of the conviction that God can (and wants to!) use teenagers as ambassadors for His Kingdom and 40 years later, we still believe it.
