The Mennonite Church in the Netherlands, or Algemene Doopsgezinde Sociëteit, is a body of Mennonite Christians in the Netherlands. The Mennonites (or Mennisten or Doopsgezinden) are named for Menno Simons (1496–1561), a Dutch Roman Catholic priest from the Province of Friesland who converted to Anabaptism around 1536. He was re-baptized as an adult in 1537 and became part (and soon leader) of the Dutch Anabaptist movement. In 1811, different regional churches merged to form the Algemene Doopsgezinde Sociëteit (doopsgezind ≈ Baptist-minded). The Mennonite Church in the Netherlands is a member of the Mennonite World Conference and in 2015 reported 7230 members in 111 congregations. More information...
