Aylmer Christian Reformed Church is blessed to have John Moelker in our midst as a summer intern pastor from Calvin Seminary. We wholeheartedly welcome John and his family and pray that he will be a blessing to us and we will be a blessing to him. Below is a short note from John and his family:

“Greetings, brothers and sisters in Christ. My wife Debora and I and our three girls (Lexa, Paige, Erin) arrived safely on June 5th and received a warm Aylmer welcome. We look forward to serving you and worshiping with you this summer. Even after a few days, we have been blessed by the body of Christ here and we thank you for that. A special thanks to the Board of Administration for putting us up in a “sweet” house in the country. It will be difficult to go back to Grand Rapids in the fall! Email: jmoelke5@calvinseminary.edu. God’s blessings, John, Debora, Lexa, Paige & Erin”

We are in the process of organizing a new photo directory for our church. There is no cost to church members or the church to have your photographs taken, and church members will receive a complimentary 8×10 portrait and directory for participating. Images will be viewable immediately after the photograph session. Photograph sessions will be held May 25, 26, 27, 28 from 2:30 pm – 9:00 pm, May 29 from 10:00 am – 4:30 pm, June 4 from 2:30 pm – 9:00 pm, and June 5 from 10:00 am – 4:30 pm.

Yesterday was Rev. deLange’s last Sunday to preach the word as the senior pastor of Aylmer Christian Reformed Church.

We wish Rev. deLange and his family God’s Blessings as he begins his new position shepherding Trinity Christian Reformed Church in Edmonton, Alberta. It certainly is difficult to part ways, and Rev. deLange’s passion for his work will certainly be missed.

Below are a couple of brief last comments from Rev. deLange

“Dear Aylmer Congregation,

It’s been a great decade among you. Today was a wonderful end to a wonderful time here. Thank you for everything, including the beautiful clock we were presented this morning!

Thank you for your partnership in ministry…

God bless you all.

There a few pictures of the day attached.

We love you all!

–Pastor Rich & Patsy deLange

A few weeks ago Adrian deLange asked Aylmer CRC’s Consistory if he could offer a sermon at Aylmer CRC some time during his Christmas break. Consistory felt that as a church we need to encourage our young adults as they seek to follow the Lord’s leading. Adrian’s request was eagerly approved. You can listen to his sermon below (and it will be permanently available on the Sermon Archive page).

Adrian deLange is in the youth ministry and theology program at Dordt College. Adrian would like to thank Rev. Norman Jones for providing some assistance in completing his message.
