Royal Crown of Life Ministries (RCLM) is an outreach, prophetic, and discipleship ministry. Our goals are (1) to preach the good news to the poor and set the captive free (Isaiah 61:1-3) and (2) to utilize the God-given spiritual gifts such as office gift of prophecy and evangelical preaching to serve the Kingdom of God and to fulfill God’s highest calling or Jesus' Great Commission to “make disciples of all nations”, the saints, who persevere and overcome will receive the crown of life and other heavenly rewards (James 1:12; Matthew 28:18-20, I Corinthians 12:28, 14:3,31; Romans 12: 6-8; Ephesians 4:11,12; Revelation 2,3); (3) to bring the churches (the body of Christ) in unity to receive full measure of Christ for God's perfect will and glory (Ephesians 4:13); (4) to make influential leaders in whatever statuses or calling they are in the community.
