Orthodox Protestant Reformed Churches,
(De Wolf Group)
Churches listed by year of organization as Protestant Reformed congregation.
The "De Wolf" group of Protestant Reformed Churches formed after Rev. Hubert De Wolf was deposed by the consistory of First Protestant Reformed Church, Grand Rapids, Michigan. This led to a denomination-wide secession resulting in two denominations of equal size, each called Protestant Reformed Churches. The DeWolf faction eventually took the name Orthodox Protestant Reformed Churches (OPRC).
Over time, the OPRC decided to unite with the Christian Reformed Church, the denomination from which the Protestant Reformed Churches had originally seceded.
