In 1982, the members of the Reformed Church decided to purchase the 'Westerkerk'. Due to the collaboration of the Protestants and the Reformed Church in the context of the 'together on the way' process, this church building had become redundant. The Reformed Church was put into use on 26 January 1983. The church building has around 380 seats. For the Reformed Church, it replaced the church building at Sumatralaan 25 a. In Hilversum, there were also Reformed Northern, Eastern and Southern churches. None of them are still in use as a Reformed church. The Northern Church has been demolished, the Eastern Church is a mosque, the Southern Church is in use by a Pentecostal church.

On Thursday, June 29, 1978, this new church building was put into use by the Reformed Church in the Netherlands (Middelburg) , after having stayed in various halls and churches for twenty-three and a half years. After the split in 1980/1981, the majority of the congregation supported the church council, which went along with the congregations around Rev. A. Wink. One member of the church council did not agree with this majority. As a result, he laid claim to the church property. Through the intervention of the court, the congregation that wished to remain within the association was allocated the property. After the split in 1981, the non-association congregation used the church building until approximately 1984. In that year, it had to hand over the church building to the church association of the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands. This congregation bought a building on De Bree . They continued under the name Reformed Church in the Netherlands outside association. However, both congregations have been allowed to worship together in the Westerkerk since 4 October 2009. The discussions held between both church councils have led to this. It was also agreed that two church council members from the non-affiliated congregation would join the church council. The church was renovated internally in 2015.
