In 1973 a group of people from 3 other area Christian Reformed churches decided to organize a new Christian Reformed
church due to overcrowding within their various congregations. These churches included Drenthe CRC, Jamestown CRC, and
Zutphen CRC. At this time the Forest Grove Reformed Church had put up a new building and thus their old facility was sold to the newly formed Forest Grove Christian Reformed Church. Pastors have included: Rev. Dennis Boogerd, Rev. Dale Ellens, Rev. Edward Knott, Rev. Brent Pennings, Rev. Leonard Van Drunen, Rev. Larry Slings, and Rev. Stephen Steenstra. With approximately 200 members, we give gratitude to the Lord for all we have been given and accomplished. We joyfully anticipate how God will use us in the future. |
