The Netherlands Reformed Churches (Dutch: Nederlands Gereformeerde Kerken, NGK) was a conservative Reformed Protestant Christian denomination in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The denomination was formed in 1967 following a schism within the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands (Liberated).
In 2017 the denomination began the process of merging with the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands (Liberated), which together formed, on 1 May 2023, the Dutch Reformed Churches, a new denomination.[2]
