Third Reformed Church (now the Church of God in Christ) is a historic church at 1009 Hermitage St., SE in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was built in 1875 and added to the National Register in 1982.[1] As of 2019, the church was being rehabilitated into a neighborhood arts center.[2]
History
Beginning in the 1840s, Dutch Protestants moved into this area of Michigan. In 1849, a community of Dutch immigrants in Grand Rapids established the Second Reformed Church. Both the church and Grand Rapids grew, and in 1875, the Third Reformed Church was founded as a subsidiary to serve congregants living on the east side of Grand Rapids. The original church building was constructed that same year, and was enlarged and remodeled multiple times thereafter, in a 1878, 1887–88, and 1894. The church remained substantially Dutch in nature for a substantial period, offering Dutch-language services until 1944.[3]
In the 1960s, the Third Reformed moved to a new suburban location, and in 1968 sold the building to the Grace Pentecostal Church of God in Christ, a congregation which had been organized in 1950.[3] In 1995, the church was sold to Iglesia Resurrection Y Vida. However, the congregation faltered, and the building became vacant.[4] The building was purchased by preservationists in 2017; as of 2019, rehabilitation into a neighborhood arts center had begun.[2]
Description
The Third Reformed Church complex consists of the church itself, the two-story, clapboarded former parsonage constructed in 1900, and a small single-story, structure connecting the two. The church building is a broad-fronted, structure with a gable roof, covered in clapboard. A pyramid-roofed, square tower is located at one corner. The building measures forty-eight feet wide by eighty-three feet deep, of which half consists of additions constructed after the original 1975 church was built. Next to the tower is a triple-arch entranceway below a circular, stained glass gable window.[3]
