History and governance
The Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches was formed at a first presbytery meeting in 1998, initially with three Reformed Protestant congregations. Doug Wilson was a founding participant through the Moscow church. CREC's official institutional history describes its growth, confessional commitments and church organization. It is not a sole proprietorship of Wilson or identical to any individual congregation.
Member congregations
Christ Church (Moscow, Idaho) was among the early churches. The Christ Church DC plant began worship in 2025; Defense Secretary pete-hegseth attended CREC-affiliated churches. Membership in a denomination does not establish direct participation in each member church's activities.
