Church of the Creator is a Christian-based faith organization headquartered in Ashland, Oregon.
The church is most notable for achieving protection of its registered trademark name "Church of the Creator" through legal proceedings within US Federal Courts, "TE-TA-MA v World Church of The Creator" and the criminal indictments, trials and convictions that were precipitated during and after the litigation. After a protracted legal battle, which culminated in a denied appeal to the United States Supreme Court, the Foundation was awarded sole usage of the name "Church of the Creator"; the name had previously also been used in part by a white supremacist group known as "World Church of the Creator", later renamed to "The Creativity Movement" in 2003. The group, both before and after the trial, was not associated with the Oregon-based church.
The Church of the Creator is associated with ministries located in the United States in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin, as well as in Canada, South America and Europe."
