The members and children of Bellstone Christian School come primarily from three Canadian Reformed Churches in the Ancaster, Glanbrook and Caledonia areas.

Ancaster Canadian Reformed Church

Ancaster Canadian Reformed Church was founded in 1987. Its original members came from Hamilton Cornerstone Canadian Reformed Church, which had outgrown its building. The congregation currently has around 310 members who live in the areas around Ancaster and into Brantford. For more information about Ancaster church please visit ancasterchurch.on.ca.

Caledonia Canadian Reformed Church

Caledonia Canadian Reformed Church was founded in 2024. As the membership of Trinity Canadian Reformed Church grew, a desire was expressed to form a new congregation in the Caledonia area. The congregation currently has around 170 members who live in Caledonia and the surrounding the area.

Trinity Canadian Reformed Church

Trinity Canadian Reformed Church was founded in 2001. Its original members also came from Hamilton Cornerstone Canadian Reformed Church, which was again dealing with a building that was becoming too small. The congregation currently has around 400 members who live in the Glanbrook area. For more information about Trinity church please visit trinitycanrc.org.

Canadian Reformed Churches

These three churches are members of the federation of Canadian Reformed Churches. This federation of about 70 churches across Canada and the United States is unified in its belief that the Holy Scripture or the Holy Bible is the Word of God, and is the final authority on faith and life in the church and its members.

Its history is rooted in the Protestant Reformation especially as it developed in the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands and came to Canada via post Second World War Dutch immigrants.

Covenant Canadian Reformed Teacher's College

Many of our past and current teachers are graduates of Covenant Canadian Reformed Teacher's College, which was founded in 1981 for the purpose of preparing men and women for careers teaching in Reformed Christian schools.

CCRTC offers programs leading to a Diploma of Education and a Diploma of Teaching. Both programs are structured to provide students with a high quality education which is firmly principled, theoretically sound as well as practical. In addition, CCRTC seeks to serve the schools by providing opportunities for the professional development of in-service teachers. This includes a program of part-time studies intended for practicing teachers and leading to the Certificate of Reformed Education.
