The “Association of Protestant Reformed Churches in German-speaking Switzerland for Church film, radio and television work”, or “FRF Association” for short , was founded in Bern in 1968 as the first institutional media organization of the German-speaking Reformed churches . In 1979 the FRF association concluded an agreement with the Swiss radio DRS and the Swiss television, which regulated the church's participation in religious programs. These "1979 Agreements" still form the basis for the activities of the radio and television commissioners of the Reformed Media.
