Welcome to Classis Red Mesa


Classis Red Mesa Statement of Purpose
To strengthen Classis Red Mesa churches and its ministries through the power of the Holy Spirit, to minister holistically in transforming lives in local churches, classis, communities and the world.

What is the CRC?
  1. The Christian Reformed Church is a denomination that has about 300,000 members in 1,000 congregations across the United States and Canada. We often call ourselves CRC for short.
  • We call ourselves Christian because we are followers of Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus was the Son of God and that he is the center of human history.
  • We’re called Reformed because we grow on a branch of the church tree that emerged from the Protestant Reformation in sixteenth-century Europe.
  • We’re a Church because we believe God has called us together to be a people who belong to him and live for him.

What is a classis?
A classis is a group of churches within a geographical area. It has the authority to deal with all church matters within its region. The CRC has 47 classis within the US and Canada.
