Description Address: 803 East 900 South, Salt Lake City. Some history from Papanikolas, The Peoples of Utah: "The organization of a Dutch-oriented Protestant congregation did not take place in Utah until after World War II. Prior to that time Dutch-born Utahns in the Salt Lake area attended existing Protestant churches or met together in small groups in homes. The First Christian Reformed Church was established in downtown Salt Lake City shortly after the war…" The building is on the site of Liberty Park Methodist Episcoplal Church, built in 1904 (historical address: 871 South 8th East). That building was purchased in June of 1953, when the Methodist congregation moved to 3300 South and became what is now Christ United Methodist Church. The old building was occupied by the Reformed congregation until replaced by the new building in 1964. They changed their official name in 2017.
