Our Story

A House Built
For The Now.

RE//FORM PLACE CHI is a Spirit-filled, apostolic, and prophetic church in Chicago — a community where people meet God, discover purpose, and become who they were created to be.

We exist to reach souls, root disciples, release destiny, strengthen families, and reform culture from the inside out. This isn’t about religion. It’s about relationship, revelation, and real transformation.

Real Stories

Stories Of
Transformation

RE//FORM gave me a community I didn't know I needed. I came broken and found healing, purpose, and a family that genuinely cares about my growth.

Marcus T.
NOVA Young Adults

I walked in not knowing what to expect and left knowing exactly who I was created to be. This place is real.

J
Jasmine R.
RE//FORM Worship Team

My family found our home at RE//FORM. Kids love RPK, my husband is growing through The Classroom, and I've been activated in my prophetic gift.

D
Danielle W.
RE//FORM Family

I was done with church. Hurt, burned out, and disconnected. RE//FORM showed me what church is supposed to look like — authentic and Spirit-filled.

Fire Nights changed my life. One encounter with God's presence in that room and everything shifted. I'm walking in freedom today.
