Reverend Bob Hoffman - Interim Pastor
The Community Reformed Church of Colonie welcomes you. We are a community bound together and energized by faith, love, and commitment to Jesus Christ. And even though you may not yet share that faith, love, and commitment, you are most welcome to be with us, to belong here, to experience what we're about. Then, if you are attracted and persuaded by what you see and hear, we hope you'll want to set down roots here long-term. And even if you don't, you'll always be a friend.
All Saints' Day
November 3, 10AM
On this special Sunday, we remember “all the saints from whom their labors rest.” Through prayer, song, and the lighting of candles, we honor those whom we dearly love and will never forget. For those of you who will attending on Zoom, we encourage you to light a candle for your honoree during the time of quiet remembrance.
Programs are slowly restarting in a variety of ways. Please contact the church for information regarding your specific area of interest.

Al-Anon
Meeting every Friday from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm, Meetings are currently being held virtually.
Al-Anon is for anyone who has been affected by alcoholism. If you are concerned about someone else's drinking, the Al-Anon program can offer help.
Al-Anon began over 50 years ago as "family groups," attended by the families of alcoholics who found sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous. Today, Al-Anon/Alateen members are finding serenity and help in our program, whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not. Recovery in Al-Anon is based on the Twelve Steps (adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous).
When our worship is over, our service begins.
Missions
Throughout the year, we work with numerous agencies and organizations throughout the Capital District and beyond. The Schulyer Inn Shelter, Colonie Outreach Center, Albany Overflow Shelter, Things of My Very Own, and Reformed Church World Service are just a few organizations that we support.
