At the General Synod 1998, The Standing Committee for publication of the Book of Praise suggested that
"Synod appoint a church to develop and maintain a formal web page of the Canadian and American Reformed Churches."
After consideration Synod made a recommendation to appoint a new Committee for the purpose of creating and maintaining an official web page for the Canadian Reformed Churches with the following mandate:
  • to serve the churches by creating and maintaining an official web page which would contain official and semi-official materials that reflect the life of the churches, are of benefit to the membership, and of assistance to her witness in this world;
  • to report to the next General Synod regarding the activities and noticeable benefits of this web page.
General Synod 2004 reappointed this committee, with the following mandate:
  1. To maintain the existing hardware and associated technical functions of the website, purchasing new hardware only if necessary to meet the ongoing needs of the website and if financially responsible;
  2. To maintain the existing content of the website, revising this content whenever necessary, in particular ensuring that the text of the Book of Praise is the same as that most recently adopted and revised by General Synod;
  3. To add new content to the website as listed in Observations 3.4.1-3.4.5;
  4. To provide web services and email services to the churches such as listed in Observations 3.4.6-3.4.7;
  5. To approve the annual budget of $500.00;
  6. To serve Synod 2007 with a report to be sent to the churches at least six months prior to the beginning of Synod, including a financial statement and a proposed budget, and any recommendations regarding new content to be added to the website.
Appointed to this committee are J. Hoogerdijk, T. Flach, Rev. A. Souman, A. van den Hoven, and M. VanderVelde (convener)
