About Christ Church Reformed
At Christ Church Reformed, we are a community of believers gathered together by God’s grace, dedicated to proclaiming the Lordship of Jesus Christ in every area of life. Rooted in the historic Christian faith and the rich heritage of the Reformation, our mission is simple: to worship God in spirit and truth, to edify the saints through the faithful preaching of Holy Scripture, and to witness to the transforming power of the gospel in our local community and the world.
Whether you are a lifelong believer looking for a deep, doctrinally sound church home or a seeker looking for answers to life’s biggest questions, you are welcome here. We believe that the gospel is not just a message for the start of the Christian life, but the very foundation upon which we grow, serve, and live together in covenant fellowship.
Our Core Values
- Biblical Authority: We believe the Bible is the inerrant, infallible Word of God. It is our ultimate authority for faith, life, and the way we structure our worship. Our sermons are deeply rooted in the text of Scripture, focusing on expository preaching that applies timeless truths to modern life.
- Confessional Integrity: As a Reformed and Presbyterian congregation, we stand on the shoulders of the historic Christian church. We hold faithfully to the Westminster Standards as an accurate summary of biblical doctrine, anchoring our community in stable, time-tested theology.
- Covenantal Community: Faith is not meant to be lived out in isolation. We value deep, intergenerational fellowship where families and individuals support, encourage, and pray for one another. From our youngest children to our elders, we are one body in Christ.
- Reverent Worship: Our corporate worship is designed to please God, not to entertain culture. We follow the historic, biblical pattern of worship that focuses on prayer, the reading and preaching of God’s Word, and the joyful singing of praise.
Our Ministries & Spiritual Life
Discipleship at Christ Church Reformed extends beyond Sunday morning. We offer a variety of ministries designed to help believers of all ages grow in their knowledge of God and love for their neighbor.
- Lord’s Day Worship & Sunday School: We gather every Lord’s Day to rest from our weekly labors and worship our Creator. Prior to our morning worship, we offer Sunday School classes for children and adults to dig deeper into theology, church history, and practical Christian living.
- Weekly Bible Studies: Throughout the week, we gather in smaller settings for prayer and focused Scripture study. These studies provide an intimate environment to ask questions, share insights, and build lasting friendships.
- Fellowship & Discipleship Groups: From community meals to dedicated groups for men, women, and youth, we intentionally create spaces where church members can share life together, offer mutual accountability, and practice practical hospitality.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is your worship style?
Our worship service is reverent, dialogical, and strictly shaped by the Word of God. We emphasize the ordinary means of grace—the reading and preaching of the Bible, prayer, and the sacraments. Our music consists of congregational singing that is robust, participatory, and
focused on praising God with clarity and theological depth.
What should I wear to a service?
We care far more about you being here than what you are wearing. On any given Sunday, you will see people dressed in everything from casual attire (jeans and a polo) to traditional business attire (suits and dresses). Come as you are to worship the Lord.
What do you mean by “Reformed and Presbyterian”?
“Reformed” means we trace our theological roots back to the 16th-century Protestant Reformation. We emphasize the absolute sovereignty of God, the total sufficiency of God’s grace in salvation, and the authority of Scripture alone. “Presbyterian” refers to our church government, which means our congregation is led and cared for by a plurality of ordained elders (called a session) who are connected to a broader network of faithful churches.
Is there something for my children during worship?
We deeply value the presence of children in the corporate worship service. We believe that covenant children benefit immensely from watching their parents pray, sing, and listen to the preaching of God’s Word. We welcome the joyful noises of little ones in the pews. However, we also understand that training young children takes time, so we provide options for parents who may need to step out with a restless child.
How can I learn more about church membership?
Church membership is a vital part of the Christian walk, committing us to a local body of believers and placing us under the spiritual care of elders. We periodically offer a prospective communicant and membership class that covers our church’s history, doctrines, and vision. Attending the class carries no obligation to join, but it is the best way to see if Christ Church Reformed is where God is calling you to serve.
