Шаблон:Infobox newspaper The Christian Courier is a Canadian monthly Christian newspaper. The editor-in-chief is Angela Reitsma Bick.[1]

The periodical was established in August 1945 as the Canadian Calvinist, an English-language publication targeted at Dutch Canadians. Paul De Koekkoek was the founding editor.[2] In 1951 it merged with Contact (a Dutch-language newspaper which had started in 1949) to become Calvinist Contact.[3] Calvinist Contact was all in Dutch and this gradually developed to be all in English by 1983.[2] It adopted its current name in 1992.[2] At this point the circulation was 5,000,[4] down from a peak of 10,000 in the 1970s.[5] As of 2015, it had 2,100 print subscribers.[5]

Christian Courier was originally bimonthly, changed to weekly in 1954, and monthly in 2020.[2] It originally served the Christian Reformed Church community, and reported on issues such as trade unions, Christian education, and women in office.[6]
