Church Related Community Work (CRCW) is a ministry where individuals are called by God and trained theologically and professionally in community development. Unlike ordained ministers, CRCWs are commissioned to help the church serve the community and share the love of Jesus Christ.

For more information on CRCWs, the URC website provides valuable resources and documents related to this ministry.
