The Dutch Reformed Church in Namibia is a Christian denomination in Namibia. It is one of ten synods of the Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa (NGK), and the only one outside South Africa. It covers all of Namibia except for the Eastern Caprivi Strip. The Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa began mission work in Namaqualand in the 1880s, and the first congregation in German South West Africa was established in 1898. The DRCN became an autonomous entity in 1957. The DRCN has 44 congregations, 22500 members (including children) and 60 pastors.<ref> Wikipedia contributors, "Dutch Reformed Church in Namibia", in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Reformed_Church_in_Namibia, accessed 25 March 2020. </ref> | The Dutch Reformed Church in Namibia is a Christian denomination in Namibia.
