The Agendas and Acts of Synod are the documents which contain the minutes and proceedings of this important annual church conference. Synod is an important part of the CRC's church governance, when groups of local churches (classis) get all together to debate and decide on issues related to the denomination as a whole. Issues range widely from missions and pastoral ministries, race and gender relations, etc. The resources below provide much of the history and record of the CRC Synods.
