Covenant Reformed Evangelical Church
Pastor Ricky Gosyne
Tunapuna, Trinidad
By God’s grace, Covenant Reformed Evangelical Church is a small but growing Reformed congregation committed to the faithful preaching of the Word of God, the ordinary means of grace, and the discipleship of believers. Our desire is to see Christ exalted, believers grounded in sound doctrine, and the gospel proclaimed clearly in our community.
An Update from Pastor Ricky
The Lord has been very kind to us over the past year. We continue to hold regular Lord’s Day worship services, prayer meetings, and Bible studies, with a particular emphasis on expository preaching and teaching the doctrines of grace. We are encouraged to see increasing interest from individuals who are eager to learn the Scriptures and grow in a deeper understanding of the gospel.
In addition to our regular worship and teaching ministries, the Lord has also provided opportunities for us to serve in practical ways within our congregation and community. Recently, members of the church came together to assist one of our families whose home has been affected by perennial flooding, helping to raise the kitchen floor so that their home would be safer and more livable. We also seek, as the Lord provides, to show Christ’s love through small acts of mercy in the community, including distributing grocery bags to families in need on a monthly basis. These efforts are modest, but we are thankful for the opportunities God gives us to care for one another and to serve those around us.
We are also thankful that the Lord has recently allowed us to resume work on our church building. As our congregation continues to grow, the need for additional space has become increasingly evident. Progress had slowed for a time, but we are grateful that work has begun again to expand and improve the facility so that we may better accommodate the congregation and continue the ministry of the Word. We appreciate prayer that the Lord would provide the necessary resources and grant wisdom as we move forward with this effort.
