About Us |
|
Through
personal contacts the Willetton Christian Reformed Church had a
long association with the Afrikaans Christian Church in Perth, operated by
Grace
Outreach. This church was commenced by
Dr Andre
van Oudtshoorn as a ministry to newly arrived South African
migrants.
In mid 2004 it was
decided by the members of the Afrikaans Christian Church in Perth
to disband and to ask the Willetton CRC to plant a new church in
the northern suburbs. Afrikaans church members would subsequently
become part of this new church planting group.
The first service
of the newly formed Grace Christian Reformed Church was held on
Nov 21 2004
under the leadership of
Rev
Peter
Abetz from Willetton CRC. He provided leadership for this group
since then.
On
May 21, 2005 Classis
WA
(the state body of the CRCA) formally endorsed Grace
CRC
as being a formal church planting project of the CRCA under the
supervision of the Willetton CRC church council.
The Classis gave formal
approval in August 2007 for Grace CRC to become an independent,
self supporting congregation within the CRCA.
The formal institution
service took place on Sunday Nov 18, 2007. Since that date, the
Grace CRC is self governing, and no longer under the supervision
of the Willetton church.
