About Salem

A Reformed congregation in Bowmanville, Ontario

Salem United Reformed Church is federated with the United Reformed Churches in North America.

Who We Are

A congregation gathered by Christ around His Word

The Belgic Confession describes the church as a holy gathering of Christian believers awaiting their entire salvation in Jesus Christ. Salem is one local congregation of that church, called to live together under Christ and His Word.

Our life as a congregation centres on Lord's Day worship, where we hear the Word of God, pray, sing praise, and receive the sacraments. We also gather during the week for Bible study, catechism instruction, youth fellowship, and Christian service.

As a member church of the URCNA, we acknowledge Jesus Christ as the supreme and only Head of the Church and confess the Reformed faith summarized in the Three Forms of Unity.

Through the URCNA, Salem is connected with the federation's work of home and foreign missions.
