Rev. Ira-Rimam Matthias Iratsi came to Synod 2008 to bring greetings from the Reformed Church of Christ in Nigeria (RCCN).
Iratsi spoke with joy of the 2003 reconciliation between the RCCN and the Christian Reformed Church of Nigeria. He also spoke of the challenges facing his denomination. “The need for revitalization of our ministries and institutions is urgent, as we look for new ways to manage the little resources we have to be more effective.”
Iratsi asked the CRC to continue working with his denomination. “If we are part of one worldwide body of Christ, we need to relate to one another, work for peace, and engage in community building. It is in view of these that we urge you, as our founding fathers, to maintain consistent ways of nurturing us.”
