About Christ Reformed Church of Alexandria
Our church exists to honor and love the LORD God who has called us into fellowship with Him by His Holy Spirit through his Son. We can only achieve this goal of being faithful to God through the Gospel of Jesus Christ who calls us to be transformed by his Word and Spirit.
The first record of the establishment of the Reformed Faith in Alexandria dates from the year 1798 when John Dietrick Aurandt, a young man inspired by the Gospel and studying for the Ministry, began his pastoral work as an itinerant preacher.
However, it was not until 1846 that the plot of land our church presently resides on was deeded over to the German Reformed Church from which we descend. In 1851, our present church building was erected.
Since then, our church has survived through several denominational shifts by virtue of mergers and in present-day remains ardent in her faithfulness to God’s Holy Word.
Angelo is originally from Brooklyn, New York. He was raised in a family that loved the Lord and learned about God’s faithfulness from his earliest of years. It was in high school when he came to rest in the peace of the Gospel. Since then his love for the Gospel has grown. His great passions now include his wife, Marie, their 4 children, studying historical theology (especially the puritans) and finding any excuse to smoke meat, go for a motorcycle ride with his daughter, or kick around a soccer ball with his family.
The Lord has graciously called Angelo and his family to help revitalize Christ Reformed Church (CRC). Since beginning as the pastor in 2013 Angelo has sought to help the congregation return to their historical Reformed faith and has come in as a mission church of the PCA. It is his hope to see not only CRC grow in its vitality and impact into the community, but to eventually become a planting church seeing men trained up and sent out to plant more Reformed churches throughout Central Pennsylvania where the light of the Gospel is especially needed.
