Dutch Reformed Church, Colesberg

The Dutch Reformed Church in Colesberg, with the Northern Cape town of Colesberg as its centre,[1] is the 18th oldest congregation of the Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa, but due to the synodal boundaries that differ from the provincial ones,[2] the fifth oldest in the Synod of Eastern Cape.[3] On 10 December 2011,[4][dead link] the congregation was already 185 years old.[5][dead link] In 2015, the congregation had 90 baptized and 458 professing members.[6]
