From the Council:
As part of the planning for the new
bi-denominational hymnal, it was noted that the RCA and CRC have differing
versions of the Reformed Standards – the Belgic Confession, Heidelberg
Catechism and Canons of Dort. A small
interdenominational committee was formed by Faith Alive to work toward a common
translation of the confessions.
Upon review of the proposed translations,
Synod 2010 mandated the committee to distribute an updated document that
reflects the suggested changes of Synod to the churches by July 1, 2010 for
response and comment in order to prepare a final report and recommendations to
synod 2011. The “Proposed Translation of
the Three Reformed Standards” version can be downloaded from the “Synodical
Resources” pages of the CRC website:
www.crcna.org/pages/synodical.cfm
(below reports)
Please take time to consider these proposed
translations over the coming weeks. The
council is asking members of our congregation to look at the proposed
revisions, and get back to a member of council.
Be sure to respond with your feedback by September 4, 2010 so that we
can include the appropriate feedback to the Synodical Study Committee.
WORSHIP WORKSHOP! Madison Avenue CRC is hosting a
worship workshop on Saturday, September 11 from 9-1 at their church. Any interested person is welcome to attend,
with a special invitation to church leaders and youth. Flyers are available at the back of the
church or talk to Pastor Joel.
