The new Yearbook of the Christian Reformed Churches is available.
The yearbook contains the contact details of the 180 churches and the new membership numbers as of 1 January 2026. All overviews of classes, PSs, deputations and other affiliations have also been updated.
The Annual Review 2025 was written by Rev A. Brons. In addition to a description of developments in the church, relevant events of most deputations and other connections are described. There is also a retrospective of the pastors who retired in the past year.
The yearbook includes In Memoriams of the six pastors emeritus who died in 2025: G.L. Born, J. Germs, K. Groeneveld, W. Steenbergen, A. Stehouwer and A.K. Wallet. The In Memoriams were written by pastors C.J. van den Boogert, L. van Dalen, J.W. Maris, A. Dingemanse, J.W. Schoonderwoerd and H.D. Rietveld.
The Yearbook 2026 contains three articles. Drs J. Bosch wrote about the two pioneer spots in South Limburg, Drs G.T.S. de Korte wrote about his work in Israel and L. Hubregtse wrote about SchuldHulpMaatje, the Christian association that helps people with money worries.
The Yearbook also contains the new membership numbers with accompanying classified information on the changes. This year, this section was handled by Ms B. Bikker, secretary of the Yearbook editorial board.
For several years now, the yearbook has only been available for sale within the church's membership.
Mutations for the Yearbook can be passed on scribae via the portal.
