Who Are We ?

      We are Christians and we are 'Reformed'. As Christians our faith has been practiced since the beginning of time in the Garden of Eden, when the first gospel promise of a coming Savior, Jesus Christ, was given after mankind's great fall into sin and separation from God.
       As an organized church we have our characteristic roots in the Western European Protestant Reformation of the 16th and 17th centuries. During that time the church sought to reform itself by returning to the Biblical principles of: the Word of God alone, faith in Christ alone, salvation by grace alone, and that all glory is to be given to God alone.
       We belong to the Free Reformed Churches of North America, which has 17 churches in the U.S. and Canada, as well as a mission church in Guatemala. Our denomination was established in the early 1900s by immigrants who came to North America from the Netherlands.
       Our local church was instituted in Passaic, NJ in 1921. In 1951 as the church grew we moved to Clifton, NJ. In 2000 we relocated to Pompton Plains, NJ where we first built a fellowship hall to worship in and in the fall of 2003 our new sanctuary was completed.
