Bethel Reformed Church marks the 25th anniversary of the formed organization of Exeter's Bethel Reformed Church. This took place in the Legion Hall in Exeter, where worship services were conducted until November, 1953. At that time the Main Street United Church (now the home of the Exeter Pentecostal Taber- nacle) made its facilities available and the Bethel congregation worshipped there until its own building was erected at Huron St. East. The congregation was served during these years by the late Neil Eelman, layworker, and the pastors. Carl Schroeder (1953- 1955), Richard VanFarowe (1956- 1965) (Zeeland, Mich.), Harmen Heeg (1965-1972) (Indianapolis, Ind.)and Henry VanEssen (1973-) . The original purpose of the congregation was to serve and-- reach out especially to all those of Dutch origin, since language, social, and cultural changes because of immigration created specific social, economic and spiritual needs which were more easily ministered to by those of the same background. But circumstances have changed greatly since 1952. Not Bethel congregation marks 25th birthday with social only did the newcomers become established and the congregation double in size, but far more important, it is clear that the original purpose has practically disappeared. The present Bethel Reformed Church seeks to be a church for peop4 of whatever national, denominational or racial background, The demonination to which the congregation belongs, the Reformed Church in America, was begun in Manhatten in 1628, and is solidly within the main- stream of Protestantism and a member of the Presbyterian family of churches. The congregation saw three of its young men go into the Hurondale.
