Who we are
We are a congregation of approximately 440 members who live and worship in the town of Aldergrove, British Columbia.
If you join us on Sunday morning or afternoon, you will find people of all ages united in praise, prayer, and listening to the message of the Bible.
What We Believe
At the heart of our congregational life is the conviction that Jesus Christ is our Saviour and Lord. We believe that He saves us from the power of sin and guilt and rules over us by His Word and through His Holy Spirit. As we put our faith in Christ, we find forgiveness for the wrong we have done and we also discover the power to change our lives to harmonize with the will of God.
As a congregation, we make it our aim to live for Christ not just on Sunday but every day of the week and in every part of life. We hope that the witness of our words and our life will also attract our neighbours to the salvation which God gives in Christ.
Summary of Faith in 5 Sayings
The leading convictions of Reformed churches such as ours are often summarized in five key statements:
By Grace Alone
Salvation is an unearned and undeserved gift from God, given to believers because of what Christ did.
See 2 Timothy 1:9By Faith Alone
God’s salvation is not earned by virtue, but received through faith in Jesus Christ.
See Ephesians 2:8–9In Christ Alone
Salvation is anchored in Christ’s sacrificial death and resurrection.
See Titus 3:5–7By Scripture Alone
The Bible is our only authority for what we believe and how we live.
See 2 Timothy 3:16–17To God Alone be the Glory
God alone deserves all praise for saving sinners. Our lives are to be lived for His glory.
See Romans 11:36
Doctrine
The Aldergrove Canadian Reformed Church is part of the Canadian & American Reformed Churches, a federation of churches that share a common faith and doctrinal foundation. We hold to the following creeds and confessions as faithful summaries of biblical truth
-
Called the Apostles’ Creed not because it was written by the apostles, but because it reflects their foundational teaching.
-
Named after Athanasius (293–373 A.D.), this creed defends the doctrine of the Trinity against early heresies.
-
Also known as the Nicaeno-Constantinopolitan Creed, this statement defines the orthodox Christian faith from the early church.
-
Known as the True Christian Confession, this is one of the primary doctrinal standards of our churches.
-
Written in Heidelberg in 1563, this catechism is a beloved and accessible teaching tool on the Christian faith.
-
Also called the Five Articles against the Remonstrants, this confession was written to uphold the doctrines of grace.
