The Christian Reformed Church in Papendrecht was founded in 1912 and held its services in the "Groene Kerkje" (now the church of De Schuilplaats) until 1966. In 1966, the current building, named Elimkerk, was put into use.

In June 2002, the new Moluccan church Elim was put into use. Construction was greatly delayed by the financial problems surrounding the Moluccan community. But these have now been resolved. The old church has been demolished. Houses now stand there.

On May 7, 1923, the Christian Reformed Church in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel was instituted. Two years later, Klaas Hogenhout's barn was exchanged for the church building on the Amstel side.

Interesting modern church without tower. Replaced an earlier church building elsewhere in the center of Amersfoort. The inauguration of this church building took place on Tuesday April 20, 1993 with 1250 seats.

Extensions in 1991 and 2006. The Reformed Church was established here in May 1924. On 19 September 1924, a small church was put into use, the Elim Church at Langeweg 61. On 11 September 1976, the foundation stone was laid for a new and larger church. The architect was M. van Dijk from Hendrik Ido Ambacht, who had also built the Petra Church of the Reformed Church in his hometown. In the design for the Elim Church, you can see a similarity between the architect's style and the Petra Church in Hendrik Ido Ambacht. A gallery was added in 1990. Under the leadership of architect J. Fierloos, a major extension was started in the summer of 2005. Temporarily, church services were held in a shed on Spoorstraat. This proved necessary because the church building had become too small again and an extension was again necessary. The church hall was expanded with 400 seats and the number of side rooms was increased from 4 to 6. The expanded church was put into use on 24 November 2006. On Friday evening 22 June 2007 the old organ, but expanded by the Nijsse company, was put into use. The following Saturday there was an open day.
