Eben-Haëzerkerk

Eben-Haëzerkerk is a modern Reformed church on Goeree-Overflakkee featuring a steel frame with four red brick walls and a tall spire rising above. The interior is designed as a single open space with flexible wooden seating arranged to accommodate worshippers comfortably.

This church was built in 2012-2013 following a split within the Dutch Reformed tradition in the early 2000s. It represents a fresh start for a congregation seeking its own space for worship.

The name comes from Hebrew, meaning 'Stone of the Helper,' which reflects the congregation's faith-centered identity. This spiritual meaning is subtly present throughout the simple, light-filled interior.

The church is easy to access from outside, with flexible interior arrangements for different group sizes. The wooden seating can be rearranged as needed, making the space adaptable for various gatherings and activities.

Four chandeliers inside the church are replicas inspired by those from another reformed church in Barneveld. This connection shows how congregations share design details and traditions across different locations.
