Christian Reformed Church

The Christian Reformed Church (CRC) is a Protestant denomination that originated in the Netherlands in the 16th century during the Reformation. It was formally established in North America in 1857 by Dutch immigrants seeking to maintain their Reformed faith and practices. The CRC emphasizes the authority of Scripture, the sovereignty of God, and the importance of community and social justice. Its mission is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and to promote the development of a faithful Christian community that engages in service and outreach to the world.
