Krimpen aan den IJssel, NL
The community was founded in 1918 on the other side of the Hollandse IJssel in Kralingseveer and a church was built in 1921. After the so-called Liberation in 1944, people from Krimpen aan den IJssel also went to church there. The number of parishioners from Krimpen from den IJssel grew strongly and in 1962 the church was moved to this side of the IJssel. At that time the church had a double name: Kralingseveer/Krimpen aan den IJssel. From 1975 the church experienced strong growth, partly due to the expansion of the civil municipality of Krimpen aan den IJssel. The green appearance of a rural village with many employment opportunities and the amenities of the big city within walking distance, made Krimpen an ideal place to live for many people. At that time (1976) the church building, the Immanuelkerk, was put into use and in 1990 expansion already appeared to be necessary. In 1997 we said goodbye to about 100 members in "Overijssel", they found shelter in Capelle Zuid/West. From that moment on we are called Reformed Church of Krimpen aan den IJssel.
