Groningen, NL
The Apostolic Society, founded in 1951, only got its own building in Groningen in 1973. It was built at Simon Vestdijklaan 2. This building was thoroughly renovated and expanded in 2003 under the supervision of the architectural firm MK in Rotterdam. In fact, three outer walls and the roof remained standing and the rest is all new. There is now room for 278 churchgoers. (57-07)
Sittard, NL
Modest modern church (hall), recognizable as a church because of the (as with the Apostolic Society also elsewhere always clear) inscription on the front facade. Extension 2005 with porch (D).
Hoogeveen, NL
Built in 1957, apostolic society building.
Sliedrecht, NL
Simple modern church hall.
Apeldoorn, NL
The first church of the Apostolic Society dates from 1955. A renovation took place in 1995 by architect LW Immerzeel. Immerzeel had also built a second church of the Apostolic Society in 1993. Over the years, however, it became apparent that two churches were too many. The church on the Rademakersdonk remained in use. The church on the Alexanderlaan was sold to the Theological University of the Christian Reformed Church in the spring of 2005. (53-05).
