Who We Are
We are the Wyoming Christian Reformed Church. Standing on the infallible Word of God, in the tradition of the Reformed faith as it's expressed in the Heidelberg Catechism, Belgic Confession and Canons of Dort, we boldly proclaim and celebrate the coming of God's kingdom in Jesus Christ. By the strength of His Spirit we gather and enfold newcomers into His covenant of grace. We teach and equip believers and their baptized children for obedient, loving service in all areas of life to the praise of our heavenly Father.
We are a church whose goal it is to proclaim the Good news that Jesus Christ is Savior and Lord. We accept the Bible as God's inspired and inerrant Word and as His will for our lives.
We are affiliated with the Christian Reformed denomination. As a confessing church we hold to the historic creeds of the Christian Church.
​
As heirs of the Protestant Reformation we believe in salvation by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8
What We Believe
1 We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three
Persons; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
​
2 We believe that all people are sinful and totally unable to save
themselves from God’s displeasure, except by His grace.
​
3 We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who
through His perfect life and sacrificial death atoned for the sins of
all who will trust in Him for salvation.
4 We believe that Jesus rose from the dead, ascended to heaven,
and that He will return to judge all mankind and to receive His
people to Himself.
​
5 We believe that all aspects of our lives are to be lived to the glory
of God under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
Meet our Pastor
Rafik Kamel
Hello. My name is Rafik Kamel. I was born in Egypt, and grew up in a Christian home. I have known Jesus as my Saviour from a young age, but I'm still growing in comprehending His greatness and the depth of His love for me.
The Lord brought me to Canada at the age of 13. I studied theology at Redeemer University where I met my wife, Leanne, and afterwards at Covenant Theological Seminary. The Lord has blessed Leanne and I with four wonderful children: Athan, Jasper, Kiama and Ransom. He's given us a wonderful church family at Wyoming CRC.
Identification Statement of the Wyoming CRC
Regarding Worship: Amidst the wide range of worship practices in our culture today, we maintain that worship is a meeting between God and His people in which God is praised and His people are blessed. Worship must centre around the preaching of the word the primary means of grace. We deem it a blessing to assemble on the Lord's Day to praise His name. Worship is our highest calling and joy.
​
Regarding Moral and Ethical Living: The Bible is our guide for life. It addresses the sanctity of life (Ex 20:13), the roles of men and women in the church and home (1 Tim 2:11-15; Eph 5:22-23), the proper attitude toward material possessions (1 Tim 6:3-10).
In short, the Bible addresses every aspect of our lives. In our world ravaged by moral relativism, we affirm that all the principles for Christian living revealed in the Bible and summarized in the ten commandments, remain normative for our lives today. The church's task is to proclaim these principles and to call sinners to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. With love and compassion we practice church discipline and encourage penitent believers in their continual battle against the kingdom of darkness.
To strengthen our identity in Christ, we seek contact and fellowship with churches of like mind.
