As people called by God, we see the church as a growing, diverse family
of vibrant congregations in which thousands worship God celebratively,
grow in His Word, and honor the Creator as Lord, with Christ's
forgiveness liberating women and men, boys and girls in all places and
cultures, shaping the church to respond with gratitude: the Spirit
releasing gifts to all for ministries of love, mercy, and justice
combined with the articulate witness changing hearts and lives by
proclaiming wholeness in Christ alone.
We are a gathering a sinners, saved by grace, and living in response to God's steadfast love and sacrifical giving of his only son, Jesus. We are called to be in Christ and to be a blessing. We believe the Bible is the truth of God, trustworthy for living today and tomorrow. We gather for worship on Sunday and are sent into our community to be a visible presence of the Kingdom of God. We are empowered by the work of the Holy Spirit to live Christ daily, to share our problems and encourage each other as we grow in the faith and knowledge of Jesus.
As
people called by God, we gather to praise God, listen to Him, and
respond. We nurture each other in faith and obedience to Christ. We love
and care for one another as the people of God. We commit ourselves to
serve and tell others about Jesus. We pursue God's justice and peace in
every area of life.

CRC is a member of the Christian Reformed Church (CRC) which includes
just over one thousand congregations across the United States and
Canada. About 75 percent of the churches are in the United States; 25
percent are in Canada. We’re one of only a few binational denominations:
rather than split into different churches at the 49th parallel, we’re
united.
Almost 300,000 people belong to the CRCNA—not a large
number when you consider the population of our two countries. But by
God’s grace we can accomplish a lot when we work together.
