Nestled in the serene hills of Kegalle, where the rhythm of village life blends with the rustle of rubber leaves, stands the Christian Reformed Church of Kegalle—a small sanctuary with a story that echoes faith, perseverance, and God’s unshakable promises. Modest in its outward appearance, the church carries within its walls a heritage that has touched lives for nearly three decades.
The ministry here was rekindled in 1995 through the vision of District Judge Mr. Prabath De Silva, who felt a deep burden for the spiritual needs of his community. With the guidance of the Wellawatte Leadership Council and the faithful support of Rev. Chester Choi from the Korean church, this dream slowly began to take form. The journey was not without challenges; resources were scarce, and there were moments when the effort seemed fragile. Yet, prayer and persistence became the pillars on which this ministry was built, and slowly, a small fellowship began to grow.
What began with a handful of faithful believers soon flourished into a vibrant congregation. The church not only provided a space for worship and teaching but also became a source of hope and love in the community. One of the most enduring aspects of this ministry has been its dedication to nurturing young minds through the Little Lambs Montessori. From its humble beginning, it became a nurturing ground for young children, offering them not just education but values rooted in faith. Over the years, countless children have walked through its doors, their lives shaped by the seeds of faith sown in those early years.
As the bells ring out on a Sunday morning and children’s laughter echoes from the Montessori playground, one cannot help but feel the heartbeat of a church that is very much alive rooted in history yet reaching forward in faith. It is a reminder that God’s work, once begun, continues through the lives of those who are willing to say yes to His call.
Today, the Christian Reformed Church of Kegalle stands as a beacon of grace, where the historic Dutch Reformed tradition meets the needs of a modern community. Its legacy is written not only in the sermons preached or the hymns sung but in the quiet, everyday acts of service and fellowship that continue to shape lives. Rooted in history and alive with vision, the Christian Reformed Church of Kegalle is a living testimony that faith, once kindled, can light up generations.
