Welcome to the
Association of Reformed Baptist Churches
of Western Canada
United in Christ. Grounded in Truth.
We are a fellowship of churches united by our shared commitment to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith. Our mission is to glorify God through sound doctrine, faithful ministry, and the proclamation of Christ’s gospel across Western Canada.
Whether you’re a pastor, church member, or exploring Reformed theology for the first time, we invite you to discover the riches of God’s Word and the unity we share as a community of believers.
Who We Are
The Association of Reformed Baptist Churches of Western Canada (ARBCWC) was established in November 2024 to promote unity among Reformed Baptist churches. Guided by the 1689 London Baptist Confession, we strive to support one another in ministry, doctrinal accountability, and fellowship.

Whether you’re a seasoned pastor or new to the Christian faith, the Confession offers clarity about God, salvation, and Christian living.
