Rev. Josiah Bokma sustained his classical ordination examination by Classis Hamilton at Mount Hamilton Christian Reformed Church and was ordained as a Minister of the Word and Sacraments by the Christian Reformed Church of North America (CRCNA) on December 2, 2017. The ordination service was held at First Hamilton Christian Reformed Church. We rejoice and recognize God’s grace in calling and equipping Josiah to serve as a Minister of the Word in his role as chaplain at Redeemer.
