We Call Ourselves the Rudyard Christian Reformed Church

Christian

Because we belong to Jesus Christ and want to be his followers.  It is through the Love of Christ that we are united into a family of faith.

But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, - John 1:12

Reformed

Because we are part of that historic branch of the Christian church that follows the teachings of the 16^thcentury reformer John Calvin who struggled to return Christianity to its biblical roots.

But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. - Titus 2:1

Church

Because God has called us to be a fellowship of his people in the world. We often call ourselves “the CRC” for short.

And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. - Hebrews 10:24-25

Our emblem is the cross in a triangle. The triangle represents the Trinity, our belief in the one God we know as three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
