Church Relationships

Church Relationships:

The URCNA is in unity with the larger body known as NAPARC (North American Presbyterian and Reformed Council) which includes over a dozen federations and denominations, and a member church of the ICRC (International Conference of Reformed Churches), a conference of Reformed Churches around the world which meets once every four years.

The URCNA is also actively developing relationships with other Reformed and Presbyterian denominations/federations throughout the world, including the following:
