Welcome

Third Church is an intentionally missional church, where resources are focused on transforming the parish surrounding our church and the neighborhoods surrounding each of our homes and lives, so that they increasingly reflect the character of the Kingdom of God.

Announcements

  • Sunday Update
    News from the pews includes this week's opportunities.
  • Sunday Morning Bulletin
    Most of us do not know any shepherds and we do not have shepherding experience on our resumes.  So when Jesus claimed to be the Good shepherd and the Sheep Gate he used images that make 21st Century North American suburban believers stretch.  But if we have found the 23rd Psalm to be a source of comfort in our lives, we are well on our way to catching why and how Jesus claims are such good news for us.  Our service will culminate in the celebration of the Lord's Supper.
  • Sunday Evening Fellowship Bulletin
    This evening we continue a series of lessons on Becoming a Good Samaritan. As we consider what it means to be agents of transformation in our neighborhoods, this video-based series will inspire us to be neighbors to those in need. The topic for tonight is "Tending to God's Creation: Why Environmental Stewardship is Biblical and Beneficial."  Dean Van Loo will share some of the practical initiatives his family has taken in this area of their Christian living. Note that we will meet in the Walnut Room.
  • Connections
    Connections is the official newsletter for Third Christian Reformed Church. Since it is a large file it may take a few moments to open.
  • Thursdays @ Third
    Join us for eight weeks of meals and various small group learning opportunities. February 9 through March 29 with dinner @ 6:00 p.m. Classes begin @ 6:45 p.m. with childcare provided.
