In general we’ll address a particular issue because it is a matter of concern to Reformed Christians, falls in line with the biblical call to do justice, has moral and ethical significance, and is a current political issue where advocacy could make a difference. An issue becomes one of our focus issues in a couple of ways:
- Synod, the annual governing assembly of the Christian Reformed Church, assigns an issue to our committee and to the Centre
- The Committee for Contact with the Government (CCG) provides support and insight to the Centre for Public Dialogue in the process of selecting a small number of critical issues to address. The CCG, a committee drawn from Christian Reformed churches across Canada, is mandated to address “significant and pressing issues” from a Christian perspective.

Wonderful to see the community engaging with The Banner! I recently submitted an idea myself and found the process straightforward. Tools like lahore estate have really helped me organize my thoughts before sharing them. I'm excited to see all the new initiatives that come from our congregations!
CRC ministers of the Word are eligible for the Ministers’ Pension Plan. From what I understand, eligibility is clearly defined: ordained CRC ministers of the Word qualify directly for the Ministers’ Pension Plan. It's not as simple as unlocking a feature in lbc tracking number pension eligibility depends on formal status and church arrangements.
