THE CRC STORY

WHO WE ARE, OUR HISTORY & LEADERS

CRC is a move of God that was birthed under the leadership of Pastor At Boshoff in 1994, with the clear mandate from God to win the lost at any cost!

A move is not something that just happens, it is a combination of a man’s unshakeable conviction and a word received from God to see a lost world return to God. With churches nationally and internationally, CRC is one of the fastest-growing churches in South Africa. We are a local church with global influence!

CRC welcomes people from all races, ages and backgrounds. Our doors are open to all people and we are proud to be one of the first multicultural, multiracial churches in South Africa. We believe the church is the middle ground of society where the rich and poor, literate and illiterate, young and old, people from different cultures and walks of life can uplift one another in God.

With two morning services and one evening service, we have over 20 000 people in attendance per Sunday Celebration service at our three key CRC locations in Bloemfontein, Pretoria and Johannesburg, reaching more than 400 000 people locally and more than 7 million internationally through our TV broadcasts every week.

It is with this passionate persuasion that we continue to build this move, for the glory of God! We treat each day as yet another opportunity to reach more souls, to live passionately, to do God’s will and demonstrate His goodness to all mankind!

CRC is you, and you are CRC, even though we are very purpose-driven we are still one big family. Together, we are the authors of this incredible story, for God’s glory! We never despise the days of small beginnings, but we look ahead and we lift our heads to the heavens as we acknowledge where our strength comes from.

OUR VISIONARY LEADER

PASTOR AT BOSHOFF, THE LION OF AFRICA

Pastor At Boshoff is the founder and Senior Pastor of Christian Revival Church.

Born in 1964, Pastor At Boshoff grew up in Bloemfontein. In 1986 he received the call into ministry and completed three years of Bible school in the local Church. He immediately started on a road of Christian service within his local Church, which led him to youth outreaches in his hometown and missionary trips into Africa.

Together with his wife Pastor Nyretta, he founded a very successful Church in Ladybrand in the Free State, which led to the establishment of CRC Bloemfontein in 1994, starting with 180 members.Through his dynamic leadership and passionate, relevant and unapologetic preaching, Pastor At continues to lead the charge for revival in South Africa and many nations across the world.

Using live link technology, Ps. At’s life-changing services are streamed in real-time to more than 55 CRC locations across the world as well as to more than 30 correctional facilities across South Africa.Pastor At’s dynamic sermons are also broadcast weekly on the CRC Online Church as well as multiple television networks across the world, bringing a message of hope to the homes of millions from South Africa into the rest of Africa, America, Russia and Europe.

Pastor At is on the Senior National Executive Board for the International Federation of Christian Churches, which is a body of several hundred churches under the Presidency of Rev. Ray McCauley (Rhema Church, South Africa).
Pastor At is focused, passionate and fervent in his hunger for the Word of God and explosive in his dynamic teaching of it. His powerful, bold and practical messages are equally refreshing in relevance to authenticity and doctrinal accuracy.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH IS ALL BIBLE-BASED

We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, in their original writing, as fully inspired of God and accept them as the supreme and final authority for faith and life.

We believe that God created man in His own image; that man sinned and thereby incurred the penalty of sin which is death physically and spiritually; that all human beings inherit a sinful nature which issues (in the case of those who reach moral responsibility) in actual transgression involving personal guilt.

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons –Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins – a substitution sacrifice – according to the Scriptures and that all who believe in Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood.

We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten of the Father, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man.

We believe in the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

OUR MANDATE

Win the lost at any cost!

OUR MISSION

Mend the nets, the catch will be great!
