Bethel Krimmer Mennonite Brethren Church (Hooker, Oklahoma, USA)
The Bethel Krimmer Mennonite Brethren Church, located near Hooker, Oklahoma, was organized in April 1907 when a baptism and church dedication service was held, and Klaas D. Willems began to serve as minister. A year later the membership of this group numbered 64 souls. Krimmer Mennonite Brethren had settled here several years earlier, but had worshiped with the Mennonite Brethren at that place. The congregation dissolved early in 1919, scattered by war clouds and depressing experiences as a result of war. The church was sold for use as a Bible academy. H. B. Pauls served as second minister and J. D. Klassen as deacon.
