	United Reformed Church - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The URC is the result of a union between the Presbyterian Church of England and the Congregational Church in England and Wales in 1972 and subsequent unions with the Re-formed Association of Churches of Christ in 1981 and the Congregational Union of Scotland in 2000.
		The URC is a trinitarian church with strong historical roots in the Presbyterian (Reformed and Calvinist) and Congregational traditions.
		Each congregation (local church) within the URC is governed by a church meeting consisting of all the members, with the counsel of the (elected) elders' meeting (similar to the Scottish Kirk's session).

	Banner of Truth Trust General Articles
		Godfrey, who is also a church history professor as well as a minister in the United Reformed Churches of North America, began by reading Psalm 2 and by addressing common misapprehensions regarding Calvin.
		In his treatise, "On the Necessity of Reforming the Church," a document to be presented by the leaders of the Protestant movement to the Emperor Charles V, Calvin wrote.
		He stated he believes that people's attraction to more liturgical churches is that in such churches it is often clear the people have come to meet with God, and too often in our Evangelical churches we have lost that sense of reverent anticipation in worship.

	An Abstract of the History of the United Reformed Churches
		It was clear to many members that increasingly the Christian Reformed Church was in danger of disregarding the marks of the true church as confessed in Article 29 of the Belgic Confession.
		It was evident that the Christian Reformed Church was showing signs of becoming unfaithful to the Word of God as summarized in the historical confessions, and that in keeping with Article 28 of the Belgic Confession the time had come to separate from that church.
		Most churches published a statement of Secession and Return, but the conviction of all was that the CRC was unfaithful and showing signs of being or becoming a false church, in spite of God's many blessings.

		Zion Christian School was founded on the deep conviction that Christian education is the responsibility of the covenant community as it seeks to train up its children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, enabling them to apply His Word to every aspect of their lives.
		The formation of the United Reformed Churches in North America in the mid 1990’s increased the feasibility of starting a new Christian school for families who belonged to these and other churches seeking to remain faithful to the historic Reformed faith.
		After many informal and unrecorded meetings, a group of concerned parents in these churches sent a letter to 22 area church councils and sessions explaining their interest in a new school and inviting each church to send a representative to an exploratory meeting on February 3, 1998.
