FAITH

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “FAITH” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 77012263, owned by Rhema Bible Church, Inc., a Texas corporation. The registration protects the word on three classes: class 009 for pre‑recorded CDs, video tapes, laser disks and DVDs that feature evangelistic preaching and teaching; class 016 for books in the field of evangelistic and religious matters; and class 045 for evangelistic and ministerial services. A similar name would raise the closest concern in any of those categories, especially if the use involves religious or educational media or services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “FAITH.” The latest maintenance event was the renewal of the registration on January 19, 2017, and no further dates are supplied. The history shows no opposition, cancellation, or other enforcement activity. For someone looking to use a similar name, the risk is that any use in the listed goods or services could be viewed as infringing the existing mark.
