Worship Services: 10am & 12pm | 2520 Patterson Avenue
We are a community of believers in Armstrong, BC seeking to worship God in Spirit and in Truth; through the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ, faithful administration of the sacraments, by worshiping God in reverence, in obedience to His Word, and by sharing His Gospel with others in Word and deed.
We invite you to worship with us at 10am and 12pm and enjoy some fellowship with a potluck lunch between services. There is babysitting downstairs for both services.
What We Believe
We are a congregation that has her historical roots in the Protestant Reformation of the 16th Century. We believe and live according to the five solas of the Reformation; namely that scripture alone is our rule for faith and life, and that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, on the ground of Jesus Christ alone and for the glory of God alone.
Historical
As a confessional Reformed, Christian church, we adhere to several faithful summaries of biblical doctrine. Find our creeds & confessions on our resources page.
Our confessions are often referred to as the Three Forms of Unity because they serve as the basis for the confessional unity of the members of our congregation, and confessional unity among the churches in our federation; the United Reformed Churches in North America. We confess that these documents accurately summarize the fundamental truths of Scripture.
Confessional
Liturgy refers to our worship. We acknowledge that we stand in a rich tradition of biblical worship. A number of keys features are:
1. Our worship is a dialogue between God and His people. God speaks and the congregation responds.
2. All worship must be regulated by the Word of God. If an element of worship cannot be found in the Word of God it is therefore unallowable.
3. The Preaching of the Word of God is to be central in worship. All of the other elements of worship are leading up to or flowing out of the preaching of the Word.

Our Church
We are a church plant sponsored by Immanuel Covenant Reformed Church of Abbotsford, BC
Our first church service was on March 26, 2023 in the Oddfellows Hall in Armstrong.
Since then, we have moved to the Seniors Centre at 2520 Patterson Ave (you can find it on Google maps here)
We do not currently have a pastor, but we are very grateful to have regular pulpit supply from our sister churches. In the meantime, we pray for God's blessing as we search for a faithful pastor to lead our congregation.
