It has the authority to deal with matters that concern its churches in common and its decisions are binding on the churches in its region. A minister and an elder (and in some cases a deacon) from each congregation are delegated to attend each classis meeting." http://www.crcna.org/welcome/christian-reformed-church-governance/classis〕 meeting was held in Lethbridge Alberta.
