Hardinxveld-Giessendam, NL
From 1 May 2004 to 2007, the Reformed Church of Giessendam/Neder-Hardinxveld and Sliedrecht used the church building of the Reformed Church of the Liberated in Hardinxveld-Giessendam for its religious services. Space was rented from an association for the elderly for catechism, Sunday school, Bible study groups and community evenings. However, the building of which these halls were part would be demolished in the short term. For the association work, the Reformed Church of Giessendam was allowed to use an office space, which however became too small due to the growth in the number of participants. In mid-June 2006, several sheds were purchased at Buitendams 215. One of them was demolished to create parking space. One shed was converted into a church with 350 seats. On Friday 14 December 2007, a new church of the Reformed Church of Giessendam was put into use at Buitendams 205. There were three barns at this location. Two of them were demolished to build the church. The parking lot was built on the site of the third barn. The design is by engineering firm Frank Klerks. The church has 349 seats.
