Christian Reformed Church of Perth

Our name: Reformed

Our name links us to the great historic event of the Reformation, which took place in Europe almost 500 years ago, and through which God was enabling people to rediscover His amazing gift of free grace in Jesus Christ.

We belong to the Protestant denomination called Christian Reformed Churches of Australia which was established in Australia in 1951. See a history of our origins by pressing the history tab.

A Place to Call Home

Over the years the CRCA has become the spiritual home of many migrants from all over the world. Originally it was a Dutch migration after the Second World War that saw the establishment of the CRCA in Australia in the early 1950s.

Other early migrants who have made the CRCA home are those who have come from Sri Lanka, many of whom have settled in Melbourne.

We are pleased that many South African migrants from these three Reformed Churches are making their home in the Christian Reformed Churches in Australia. Already in the Christian Reformed Church of Perth we have a growing number of folk from the Nederduitsch or Nederduits Hervormde Kerk van Afrika (NH),  Nederduitsch or Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk van Afrika (NG) and the Gereformeerde Kerk van Afrika (GK).

In particular the CRC Perth is where we have many international visitors worship with us as they pass through Perth either on holidays or on business. (See the Map page to see how close and accessible we are to the centre of Perth - just minutes away).
