The North Grand Rapids Classis of the Reformed Church in America
Welcome to the North Grand Rapids Classis website. The North Grand Rapids Classis represents 18 organized congregations, church starts, affiliated ministries and many ordained ministers related to the Reformed Church in America. Geographically, the bulk of our churches are gathered on the "northern" half of greater Grand Rapids, but we also extend to Flint, Rockford and Casnovia.
You are warmly invited to join one of our worshiping bodies as we celebrate our risen savior and participate in God's active transformation of the world.
If you have questions about our ministry or mission, please feel to contact our president, Elder Jan Koopman.
