December 28, 2025 | Bulletin Announcement

Announcements

New Church Officers: The newly selected Ruling Elders are Jeff Bleyenburg and Dave Rieck. The new Deacons are Kellen Kooi, Lucas Roskamp, and Reed Van Hulzen. If there is any scriptural reason why these men should not be ordained and installed to their office, please see Jason Snyder or Pastor Mark.

Name Change Vote Update: Thank you to all who participated in the name change vote. We received 13 absentee “yes” votes and 9 “no” votes. On Sunday, following the service, 61 “yes” votes and 41 “no” votes were cast.

Because a 70% majority was required to approve the change, the motion did not pass. The church name will remain the same, with the tag line “First Reformed Church, an Evangelical Presbyterian Church.”

Coffee Break Bible Study and Story Hour will not meet December 31. This includes both evening and morning sessions.

Note: The bulletin will be printed early next week, please have all bulletin announcements in by Wednesday at 9:00 am.

Upcoming Dates:
January 4 - Installation and Ordination
January 7 - Midweek
January 11 - Profession of Faith Sunday
