Central Beliefs
We live in a time of wonders! Miracles throng every street corner, and resurrection is a simple and affordable option for all! Yet the survivors of Malton barricade themselves against the bounty of the Dark God, they arm themselves to perpetrate deeds of terrible violence upon the blessed and holy, and they put their faith in Man's works, despite the fact that Man's works have failed them time and again.
Our church seeks to reach out to the misguided and to directly educate them in the wonders of the age through hands-on resurrection experiences.
Sacrament
The Sacrament of Death and Rebirth is the holiest ritual of the Church.
Code of Conduct
1. Sacrament is not given to Church members by Church members. If one of the Misguided performs Sacrament upon a member, this is accepted as the Will of the Dark God.
2. Revivification syringes are the Work of Man. Therefore, their use is strictly forbidden to Church members. However, if a member is revived by one of the Misguided, than the Will of the Dark God is for that member to take human form to better spread the Teachings.
3. Sacrament is never to be given to inexperienced survivors, unless specifically requested. Our work is to Convert the Misguided, those survivors who have proved themselves rigid in their Fear of the Miracle.
4. It is the Holy Duty of Church members to spread the Teachings by providing Sacrament to the Misguided. Members must strive to educate those who receive the Sacrament, as well as those who witness it. Therefore, members Sermonize on the Teachings of the Church as they perform the Sacred Rite.
Metagaming Rules
With the exception of descriptive wikipages, Church members do not communicate outside the game itself.
Current Headquarters
St. Arnold's Church (Rolt Heights) currently serves as the primary worship center for the Church of the Present Resurrection. All who shelter there are considered to be in the congregation, and thus need not be converted through the Sacrament of Death and Rebirth.
Clergy
The position of Head Resurrectionist is currently filled by Wicked Anderson. Certain intolerant parties in Rolt Heights have forced him into hiding, but he continues to deliver sermons at St. Arnold's several times a week.
Information Services
As part of the Church's outreach program, Resurrection Radio is currently broadcasting on frequency 28.01.
