What we do
The World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC) coordinates joint church
initiatives for unity, worship renewal, contemporary mission, and economic,
ecological and gender justice.

Why
WCRC’s member churches believe that Christian faith engages us in actions which respond to the spiritual needs and social rights of all people in society and that this includes ensuring responsible use of natural resources.

How
WCRC is committed to collaborating with other church movements on issues of
common concern such as climate change, gender equality and theological dialogue.

WCRC is supported principally by membership contributions of finances and human resources. It also seeks funding for specific projects.

Theology
We promote church unity, worship renewal, and ecumenical formation.
In Reformed theology, we affirm and embody characteristics that distinguish how we see our place in God’s world. The basics for Reformed Theology are:
  • The unconditional subordination of tradition and doctrine to the Bible
  • The assignment of our own denomination to the one, ecumenical church
  • The integration of our own denomination in the pilgrimage of God’s people
  • The powerful claim of God to our whole life
  • The common character of the Christian life under one head
