The origins of the congregation lie in 1838, when a Christian separated congregation was instituted. Via the Reformed Churches under the Cross (1846) and the Christian Reformed Church (1869), it became a free congregation in 1883 with the name Independent Christian Congregation. In 1922, it joined the Federation of Old Reformed Congregations. Eleven years later, in 1933, the congregation joined the Reformed Congregations. A minority remained with Rev. J. van Wier as a free congregation. In 1946, it joined the federation again, which merged with the Old Reformed Congregations in the Netherlands in 1948.
