The United Reformed Churches of North America (URCNA), of which we are a member, is a council member of the North American Presbyterian And Reformed Council (NAPARC). We worship our triune God as revealed in the 66 books of the old and new testaments of Holy Scripture, according to the standard of faith set in the early church's ecumenical creeds (Apostolic, Nicene, and Athanasian creeds) and the
historic confessions of the Reformation, otherwise known as the three forms of unity (Belgic Confession, Heidelberg Catechism, and Canons of Dort).
• Refreshments (coffee, cookies, juice) to follow our morning service for a time of fellowship
• Nursery provided during service by volunteering members with a vulnerable sector check
• Typical dress tends to be semi-formal to formal, though all are welcome
• Services administered by an ordained minister of the word or ordained elder
• Exegetical preaching with a redemptive-historical focus
• Evening sermons tend to be doctrinal teaching sermons, structured by a day of the Heidelberg Catechism
• Sacraments are only administered by an ordained pastor to communicant members (or their children, in the case of baptism) or members in good standing of other NAPARC congregations. Please reach out to our clerk if you plan to partake in the Lord's supper as a visitor.
