About
As a church we want to do whatever we can to help you move along in your journey. Most people think church is too boring, too intimidating or just not relevant for their life. We believe the exact opposite. Creek Road Community Church is focused on helping you take your next step towards Christ.
We understand that every person is different. We don't all learn the same, have the same preferences or strengths and weaknesses. We are all not at the same level of spiritual maturity in Christ. But we are called in scripture, as a church, to build one another up... to encourage one another toward growth in Christ and His word... to spur one another toward love and good deeds... to help each other grow in righteousness. Faith in Jesus Christ is what binds us all together, in spite of our differences, and help us become more like Him in the context of our loving community here in Delavan.
The Reformed Church in America is a fellowship of congregations called by God and empowered by the Holy Spirit to be the very presence of Jesus Christ in the world.
Our shared task is to equip congregations for ministry—a thousand churches in a million ways doing one thing—following Christ in mission, in a lost and broken world so loved by God.
The Reformed Church in America (RCA) is a confessional church. This means that, as a denomination, we affirm specific statements of belief called creeds and confessions.
These statements are biblically based and were written to respond to issues by explaining in detail what the church believes about those topics.
Creeds
Along with most Christian churches, the RCA affirms three creeds that were written in the first few centuries after Jesus’s death: the Apostles’ Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed.
Confessions
Four statements of belief, known in the RCA as Standards of Unity, express what the Reformed Church believes: the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession, the Canons of Dort, and the Confession of Belhar.
A confession is a written, formal statement that acknowledges, declares, and gives evidence of religious beliefs.
A confession speaks both internally and externally. It speaks internally to the church that makes the statement and communicates the vision and mission of the church. In turn, this reminds the church of its vision and mission.
A confession speaks externally to the world so loved by God—other churches, faiths, cultures, and societies both religious and secular, the “total community” in its various lifestyles and structures. A confession declares to the world the church’s beliefs regarding the call of God to a vision and mission.
