The Church Order and its Supplements show how congregations of the Christian Reformed Church in North America (CRC) live together and organize themselves. The Church Order regulates the organization and activities of the church. The Supplements are decisions that synods have judged significant enough to accompany the Church Order.
More than a set of regulations and guidelines, the Church Order is like a covenant among church members in a denomination who agree to abide by its provisions and to work together to change the regulations when necessary. In an era of growing diversity in the church, the Church Order establishes common ground and promotes unity even as it encompasses many different churches in varying local contexts.
