An extraordinarily gifted intercessor, Dr. Regina Martin Archat, a native of South Florida, is an “Affirmed Apostle of Prayer.” This South Florida native is also a Pastor, an entrepreneur, and a newlywed to her husband, Damion Archat. The couple’s home comprises an ecosystem of energies, surrounded by Brown Girls Magic resting in the splendor of their five beautiful daughters: Jazzmin, Olivia, Savanah, Sydney, and Selena. Dr. Archat is the Senior Pastor at Embassy Church of South Florida, having celebrated her 10th Pastoral anniversary as the Senior Pastor in February of 2021. She is also the Founder and Operator of Embassy College and The Embassy Academy, a K-12 private school, which received a nomination for ‘School of the Year’ by the I Am Hope Foundation. She has authored many books and publications, most notably “Forerunner,” which sold out in the first month of its publication. Dr. Archat is well known within the South Florida community as a woman of prayer, deliverance, revelation, and service. During a time when strong leadership is essential for society to recover from the perils of 2020, Dr. Archat is an impetus for change and a beacon of hope for the citizens of South Florida. South Florida has experienced an abundance of migration from the northern United States, the Caribbean, and Latin America. If being the “first” is a reflective light of potential achievement for life’s desire that others may strive to replicate, Dr. Archat is certainly a bright light in this regard.

She made history by shattering the glass ceiling to grace the chambers
of the City Commissioner as an American Caribbean Woman who won a seat once occupied by an incumbent Caucasian male, who held the seat for 28 years. As the City Commissioner, she was elected by the people to speak truth to power as a voice that represents the community. Dr. Archat is also the Founder of the fashion enterprise ‘House of Babydoll’, where she helps women discover their unique style. Dr. Archat is a supportive Pastor who aims to foster growth by allowing members to walk through their own unique process, where God deals personally with them. If a member wants to know how to let God deal with them, Dr. Archat’s response is, “Try fasting while focusing on God’s word. We are a wordbased church, and we operate in the fivefold ministry as well.” As a child, she saw herself traveling the world, inspired by two favorite shows on Lifetime TV. She would watch the history, world, and discovery shows with her mother for hours. The shows provided Dr. Archat entry into the notion that different places existed, as vividly shown on the TV screen. Witnessing the “beautiful falls” inspired her to go to Niagara Falls. Places like the Philippines on the TV show created a desire “just to travel the world.” What is your ministry calling? And in what capacity do you serve your church? “I would say serving through prayer. I don’t really want to classify members as millennials, rather, I describe my church as an international church.
