Krimpen aan de Lek, NL
Built to replace the predecessor of this church, which was demolished in 1939. There is a whale on the tower of the church. This whale is a reminder of whaling, which was an important source of income for the village in earlier centuries. The bell from 1388 - elsewhere incorrectly mentioned as originating from Krimpen aan den IJssel - was damaged in 1940 and could no longer ring. The municipal authorities wanted to melt down the bell, but historians put a stop to that. The bell ended up in the Gouda museum, the Catharina Gasthuis. It has since been decided that the bell will return to Krimpen. The current bell was made in 1962 by Van Bergen in Heiligerlee.

A new Reformed Church was built on the Grintweg in 1953, based on a design by C. van der Bom. After the formation of the PKN community, the last service was held in that church on 21 August 2005.

Kleverskerke, NL
Around 1200 the first church was founded in Kerkwerve. For the first centuries it was Roman Catholic. Shortly after the siege of Zierikzee around 1576 the Reformation began to break through on Schouwen-Duiveland. The residents of Kerkwerve joined the new doctrine. The damaged church was partly demolished and partly restored and made suitable for the Reformed church service. In the 1980s the exterior of the Dutch Reformed church was restored. Between 1992 and 2004 the interior was restored in phases. Finally the coats of arms of the Lords of Kleverskerke were given a makeover. They are hanging back in their place in the pew. And with this the restoration was completed on 22 October 2004.
