History

The Readington Reformed Church, founded in 1719, is apart of the Reformed Church in America, one of the oldest protestant denominations in this country. It is the Dutch who brought this particular branch of "the Church of Jesus Christ, Reformed according to the Word of God" to our shores. The sanctuary on Readington Road (Route 620) was built in 1865 and is the congregation's fourth sanctuary.

A 171 page book entitled "Readington Reformed Church History (1719-1969)" is available in the Church office. This book was written by Lorena Vincent Cole with sketches by Ruth Hageman Doremus and Doris Bacorn Hough.
