Outreach-Home Missions

For years, we supported a Punjabi ministry especially through the work of Rev. Kuldip Gangar. After his sudden death in 2015, this work was given over to existing Punjabi ministries from other churches.

From 2019-2023, we sponsored the work of outreach among Asians, especially in New Jersey and New York area. This work was through the FRC US Urban Mission and was led by Rev. Young Jae Lee under the oversight of the Grand Rapids FRC.

The Outreach committee works with churches engaged in church planting giving guidance and support as requested from the churches and as approved at our FRCNA Synod meetings. The latest church plant ministry that developed into a church in our federation of churches is the FRC church in Powassan, Ontario where Pastor Rob Vandoodewaard is serving as minister of the gospel.

Diaconate Ministries

Consider the following...

Practical theology is principally systematic theology brought to practical expression and application. And this means the whole counsel of God brought to bear upon every sphere of life, and particularly upon every phase of the life and witness of the church. He would be a poor theologian indeed who would be unaware of, or indifferent to, the practical application of God’s revealed counsel.
