What we believe  
Home PageEmail UsWhen we worshipWhere we worshipWho we areFeaturesOutreach

The Canadian Reformed Churches believe all that is in the Bible, as is summarized in

the Apostles Creed

the Nicene Creed

the Athanasian Creed

 

Specific doctrinal issues are dealt with in the Reformed confessions, which are


the Belgic Confession

the Heidelberg Catechism

the Canons of Dort

For the maintenance of good order in the church of Christ it is necessary that there be offices and supervision of doctrine; assemblies; worship, sacraments, and ceremonies; and discipline. These are regulated in the Church Order, which is adapted by all our Churches in the Federation.

 

Education of our Children

Since we are responsible to educate our children in accordance with God's Word as summarized in the above creeds , we cannot expect a public school system to take over the duties of our parents.  And this is why you will find a local Christian School, founded and operated by members of a Canadian Reformed Church.  Burlington's John Calvin Christian School is located at the rear of Ebenezer Church.

Our Church building features 2 corner stones. The first one was laid on September 2nd., 1957. We were very proud of this building. There was a lot of history and many good memories. Unfortunately a fire in the fall of 1988 completely destroyed the building. The only thing we could salvage was the cornerstone of 1957, which found a permanent place near the front entrance below the new stone which was unveiled on July 3, 1990 by our first pastor, Rev. Gilbert Van Dooren.
