Media Fellowship International — WELCOME!

Ever wonder if there are other Christians on other stations or other sets? Media Fellowship International provides a way to get in touch with other Christians in media and entertainment professions

MFI is impacting the
media and the message
from the inside out. 

MFI ministers to media and entertainment professionals in key arts and media cities worldwide who are seeking safe spiritual haven; transforming them into Christian leaders who serve, challenge and influence.

Media Chaplain Support Program

Isaiah 61:1-2
The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn.  NIV

God has called some to serve in the capacity of a chaplain to people who may need someone to talk to and pray with.  Under the umbrella of Media Fellowship International we are gathering together a number of people who are trained and ready to help.

Typical services will include:

Critical Incident Response Team
Hospital visitation
Jail visitation
To meet with those seeking spiritual counsel;
To add strength and sustenance to local groups around the country
To help with pre-marital counseling; marriages; funerals;  other special meetings;
To be involved with coordinating and encouraging local MFI groups.

We are beginning the On-Line training sessions for our Chaplaincy Program at this time.

We continue to be grateful for the healing

Paul, our son, suffered critical injuries in a motorcycle accident on August 1, 2008.
and suffered a traumatic brain injury.
 We know that Jesus will walk alongside him and us.
We deeply appreciate your prayers.

Pastor Bob and Marion Rieth

Give a gift that will have meaning for years to come.  Order Words from The Director, an NIV New Testament designed especially for members of the media industry.

With personal testimonies and practical suggestions on how to study the Bible, this high quality New Testament is a small, striking and convenient way to share the Word with others.

The Bible is meant to be READ.  We often read books ABOUT the Bible and articles that explain how we should act or think as a Christian, but we must not forget to open the pages of the Bible and let God speak to us through it. 

Email MFI@USA.NET for information on how to order one now.

MFI Focus

1. Our focus is on reaching professionals in media and entertainment. This includes television, film, radio, print, theater, music and the internet.

2. Our scope is affirmed as worldwide. We actively claim the "International" part of our name, "Media Fellowship International."

3. Our purpose is summed up in the words, "for Christ." We claim the media community for Christ. The message of forgiveness and salvation precedes the social and moral improvements that we pray will be evident in the media products of the future.
