From 1847 to 1926 the Mennonite ministers in the Dutch province of Friesland held their (unofficial) meetings twice a year, in the spring at Leeuwarden and in the fall at Sneek, discussing problems of special Mennonite interest and hearing scholarly theological addresses given by one of the ministers. The Friesche Vereeniging was dissolved in 1926, when a general Dutch Ministers' Conference was founded.
