The Reformed Church of Christ the Saviour (Freician: Pakaragare Rehokaga'ia oe Kiaira te ma Kaovaraha'ama; PRKK) is a Methodist denomination in Freice and, as of 2021, the largest church and Christian denomination in the Country. The church was founded in 1953 with the merger of the Church of Christ (Pakaragare oe Kiaira) and the Church of the Saviour (Pakaragare oe te ma Kaovaraha'ama), largely driven by pro-independence and Freician nationalist factions that sought to use religion as a vehicle for their aims. The church has its roots in the Methodist missionaries who settled in Freice with Riamese colonisation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Although not the state church, the PRKK wields significant influence in society, due in most part to the large number of Freicians who are practitioners.
