Uniting General Council of the World Communion of Reformed Churches

The Reformed Spirituality Network established a prayer room at the Calvin College Campus in Grand Rapids, Michigan, during the meetings of the Uniting General Council forming the World Communion of Reformed Churches. We were there in a room of the Spoelhof Fieldhouse Complex with space for prayer, modeling clay, writing in a journal, reading scripture, watching pictures and quotes on the screen, walking a labyrinth and placing prayers on a world map.

The meetings formed a new association of Reformed Churches in the world comprising some 80 million Christians in 108 countries, all in the Reformed tradition. Two previous organizations of Reformed Christians were disbanded, the World Alliance of Reformed Churches and the Reformed Ecumenical Council, to form the World Communion of Reformed Churches.

Thanks to all who helped set up the prayer room and be attendants there to pray for the proceedings and offer hospitality to those who came to the room.
