When in 1873 brother Enno Haan (later a Christian Reformed minister in America, HCH) was to be sent in behalf of the aforementioned church to Java (Quitang near Batavia), he fast had to be ordained as minister of the Word and Sacraments. They instructed Rev. H. Beuker (the same man who wrote this Liturgies and who came to America and was professor at Calvin Seminary, HCH), at that time minister at Haarlingen and vice-president of the Mission Committee to prepare a concept-form for that purpose. He fulfilled this mandate. In preparing this form he adhered, in so far as the nature of the case permitted, to the existing form for the ordination of the minister of the Word who was called to labor in the home churches. Where the particular field of labor required something different, he tried to hold as strictly as possible to God's Word. The concept-form was first approved by the Mission Committee and later also by the General Synod of the Christian Reformed Church. With the use of this form Rev. E. Haan was ordained that same year in the congregation of Kampen by the author. It has remained in use in the Netherlands until now, and was taken over in the Christian Reformed Church in America. One can find it in the back of the new edition of the Church Order and the Synodical Regulations which was published in 1897 by J.B. Hulst."

The Rev. Enno R. Haan was sent to Java, Sept. 17, 1873. As the pioneer in the work, he deserves especial mention and credit for the good he did during his ten 3'ears' stay in that unhealthy climate. On returning to his native land, in 1883, he had the comfort of leaving to his successor two congregations, one of converted natives at Quitang, and an- other of Hollanders at Batavia. Failing health caused him to repatriate. He first lectured throughout the Netherlands on the cause of missions, was afterwards called to a pastor- ate, and is now the beloved pastor of one of our Christian Reformed congregations at Grand Rapids, Mich.
