The Orphan, The Widow, and the

Ephesians 4:12 indicates that it is every church member’s role to do the work of ministry for the building up of the body of Christ. So, if you were to ask, “What type of ministries does CRBC have?” We would answer, “We have as many ministries as we have members.”

Our people are involved in a number of activities to serve one another, serve our community, and to reach the world. Below, however, are a few of the main activities that our church life is structured around.

What We Are

i. CHRISTIAN

We are followers of Jesus Christ, having put our faith in His perfect life, substitutionary death, victorious resurrection and repented of sin.

ii. ORTHODOX

We hold to the doctrines as handed down from the apostles, which are universally and historically held Christian beliefs.

iii. REFORMED

We affirm the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith and hold to the '5 Solas': According to Scripture alone, we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, for the glory of God alone.

iv. EVANGELICAL

We stand with conservative Protestants who seek to recover the pure Gospel through biblical doctrine and faithful church practice.

v. BAPTISTIC

We are an assembly of covenanted and baptized believers that is elder-led, deacon-served, and congregationally-accountable.
