The Reformed Church and the Reformed Church in Drogeham, Friesland, merged on 12 December to form the Protestant Church of Drogeham. The reunification takes place after a separation of 175 years. Drogeham was one of the first churches to join the Secession. The Secession began in 1834 in Ulrum under the leadership of Rev. H. de Cock. In 1835, Doeveren and Genderen (Rev. HP Scholte) followed, and in 1835 Hattem (Rev. A. Brummelkamp), Almkerk (Rev. GF Gezelle Meerburg) and Drogeham (Rev. S. van Velzen). The merged church has approximately 900 members.
