Here are the resources available to your church for special dates and offerings throughout the year. Materials vary from week to week, but can include bulletin covers and inserts, children's resources, devotionals, worship planning tools, prayers, projection graphics and more. The resources are organized below by their suggested date on the CRCNA Deacons' Offering Calendar; however, most materials are designed in such a way that they may be used on any date that works best for your congregation.

Emails are sent twice a year (in March and September) to every Christian Reformed congregation in North America with a unique order form link that allows you to order materials for six months at a time. The March order form includes materials for July to December, and the September order form covers January to June. To place a special order, call 800-333-8300.

April 13, 2025 (Palm Sunday) - Calvin Theological Seminary

CTS logo

There’s more than Master of Divinity degrees happening at Calvin Theological Seminary. Thanks to your generous financial support, Calvin Seminary is awarding over $1.6 million in financial aid to students each year, with 10 degree programs equipping students for a diverse variety of ministry callings. Our graduates go on to pastor churches, work as chaplains, serve as nonprofit leaders, teach theology at universities and seminaries, work in local or global missions, and so much more. However, we don’t exist just to equip and train ministry leaders: we exist to serve you, the body of Christ. As of January 2025, our new content platform (The Forum) is serving you in a new, engaging way: providing articles, podcasts, events, and online learning opportunities that help you ponder life’s tough questions about faith, Scripture, culture, and more. The Forum Platform was created by Calvin Seminary in partnership with Lifelong Learning and the Institute for Mission, Church, and Culture (IMCC). Your ongoing financial support will help Calvin Seminary and its partner institutes, such as IMCC, continue to faithfully obey our God-given mission to “form church leaders who cultivate communities of disciples of Jesus Christ”. We look forward to serving you!
