The Canadian Reformed Mission is now meeting for worship at a new location! We have been blessed with a rental building of our own, on the corner of 15th Ave. and Ospika Blvd. We meet for worship on the Lord’s Day at 10:30 AM. Worship is followed by a time of fellowship, and a lesson from the Reformed confessions (the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession, and the Canons of Dort). Bible study is held on Sunday evenings at 7 PM in the church building.
For more information, for directions, or if you have any questions, please call Pastor Jim: (250) 562-9542.

Beginning on Sunday, September 6th, at 7 PM, we will begin a fourteen-week study of the attributes of God. How has God revealed Himself? Who is this God that Christians talk about? And why is it so important for everyone to get to know Him? Here’s an outline of our course of study:
Week 1: God is One
Week 2: God is Spirit
Week 3: God is Great and Perfect
Week 4: God is Eternal, Self-Existing, and Immutable
Week 5: God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Omniscient
Week 6: God is Holy
Week 7: God is Righteous
Week 8: God is True and Truthful
Week 9: God is Faithful
Week 10: God is Love
Week 11: God is Creator and Sustainer
Week 12: God is Lord Over All
Week 13: God is Lawgiver and Judge
Week 14: The Names of God
Using Paul Washer’s Study Guide, The One True God, we will seek to get to know who God is, by studying the Book in which He has revealed Himself. If you would like to join us on journey of discovery, register now!

Is the Old Testament a closed book for you?
If the first thirty-nine books of the Bible are a mystery to you, you’re missing out on a treasure trove of Biblical wisdom and understanding. Dr. Peter J. Leithart (Ph.D., Cambridge), Fellow of Theology and Literature at New St. Andrews College in Moscow, Idaho, says this: “We must recover the medieval and reformational way of reading the Old Testament as a book about Jesus.” We want to help you to do just that!
Whatever your level of Scriptural knowledge or religious background, we welcome you to join us on a sixteen-week journey through the Old Testament, as we explore the wonders of the often-neglected first half of the Bible. The course, textbook (A House For My Name: A Survey of the Old Testament, by Dr. Peter J. Leithart), study materials, and refreshments are all absolutely free to all who register. No financial offerings will be taken, and no commitment will be sought other than a willingness to be an active and enthusiastic participant in the course.
Space is limited! To register, please call Pastor Jim Witteveen: (250) 562-9542, or email us: pastorjim (at) pgchurch.ca.
Classes will be held at Yalenka Hall, 933 Patricia Blvd., Prince George, every Sunday evening at 7 PM, beginning on May 3rd, 2009.
This journey is bound to be exciting, informative, and eye-opening. If you want to understand the message of the New Testament, you need to know where it came from. There’s a world of revelation in these books, and we’d love to have you join us to explore it!
Using Dr. Leithart’s excellent survey of the Old Testament as our guide, here is the outline we hope to follow:
-
Introduction (pp. 13-41)
-
Introduction: The New Concealed - An introduction to the topic, including a discussion of the relationship between the Old and the New Testaments, methods of Bible Study, and the importance of the Hebrew Scriptures.
-
Book of Beginnings (pp. 43-57) - Genesis, from the creation of the universe to the Flood.
-
Book of Beginnings II (pp. 58-69) - Genesis, from Babel to Egypt.
-
Out of Egypt Have I Called My Son (pp.71-87) - The story of Israel’s exodus from Egypt, the laws of God, and the building of the tabernacle.
-
Out of Egypt Have I Called My Son II (pp.87-100) - What can a Christian learn from the sacrificial laws and the laws for the priesthood?
-
From Sinai to Shiloh (pp.101-113) - Israel’s wandering in the wilderness and conquest of the Promised Land of Canaan.
-
From Sinai to Shiloh II (pp.113-128) - The world of the Judges.
-
The House of David and the House of Yahweh (pp.129-141) - The beginnings of the kingship in Israel.
-
The House of David and the House of Yahweh II (pp.141-160) - The glorious kingships of David and Solomon, the “glory days” of the Kingdom of Israel.
-
Walking in the Customs of the Nations (pp.161-179) - The division and descent of the kingdom in the time of the kings after Solomon.
-
Walking in the Customs of the Nations II (pp.179-188) - The story of Jonah, much more than a nice Sunday school tale!
-
The Last Days of Judah (pp.189-214) - Prelude to the exile: the work of God’s prophet Jeremiah.
-
Exile and New Exodus (pp.215-229) - After the exile, the prophecies of Ezekiel and Daniel, and the message of Esther.
-
Exile and New Exodus II (pp.229-239) - God’s people return to Jerusalem: the work of Ezra and Nehemiah, and the prophecies of Zechariah.
-
Israel Dead and Reborn (pp.241-259) - The transition from the Old to the New: the story of Jesus fulfills the story of Israel.
-
Israel Dead and Reborn II (pp.259-264) - Jesus, the great king!
-
Conclusion: What have we learned, and what should we do with it?

“Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what He has done. Sing to Him, sing praise to Him; tell of all His wonderful acts” (Psalm 105:1,2).
According to
Psalm 105, God’s people have two important callings in this life. These are callings that go together, callings that cannot be separated from one another: we are called to worship our great God, and in so doing we make Him known among the nations. We are called not only to give thanks to the LORD, but also to tell of all His wonderful acts. And that’s why we’re here in Prince George - to plant a church of Jesus Christ in the largest city in Northern British Columbia, and to make Him known among the people of our city. We pray that this website will serve as a tool to make the Lord known in this city, and to lead more and more people to join us in leading a life that brings glory to Him.
Please check back often; this site will always be under construction! On the sidebar to the left, you will find links to articles, audio messages, the P.G. Mission blog, and other sites of interest. And if you have any questions or comments about anything you see or hear on our site, please feel free to contact us!
