Reformed Christianity (Calvinism) in Lithuania | True Lithuania

I've had some contact with them, through teaching in Latvia at the Baltic Reformed Theological Seminary in Riga. The historic Reformed church there has had some problems with more liberal groups suing to take away their property, representing themselves as reformed. There are some good and faithful men laboring in often difficult situations, in small churches, where many young men with leadership gifts end up going abroad to seek work. The reformation came to the area early, often through German trading contacts, though Lithuania's close ties to Poland meant that Catholicism remains dominant.
