- Reformed Congregations in North America is de officiële benaming voor de vier Gereformeerde Gemeenten in Nederland in Noord-Amerika, hoofdzakelijk Canada. De gemeenten tellen 1831 leden (1 januari 2015). Onder de leden van het kerkverband bevinden zich veel (nakomelingen van) Nederlandse emigranten. De gemeenten zijn nauw verwant met de grotere Netherlands Reformed Congregations, die op hun beurt zusterkerken zijn van de Gereformeerde Gemeenten. De gemeenten richten zich evenals de Nederlandse Gereformeerde Gemeenten in Nederland sterk op de theologie uit de tijd van de Nadere Reformatie. In leer en prediking worden de volgende zaken benadrukt:
* het gezag van de Bijbel: de Bijbel is van kaft tot kaft Gods onfeilbare woord;
* de onbekwaamheid van de mens om tot Gods eer te leven;
* daaruit voortvloeiend de noodzaak van wedergeboorte en bekering en persoonlijk geloof in Christus;
* de weg waarin de Heilige Geest deze zaken werkt, en hoe de gelovige dit persoonlijk beleeft (ook wel bevinding genoemd);
* het leven in Christus: de christen ervaart zichzelf steeds meer als nietig en onwaardig, en ziet vandaaruit steeds meer heerlijkheid in God en Christus. (nl)
