Jelmer Pietersz, a deacon or a preacher of the Flemish Mennonite congregation of Harlingen, Dutch province of Friesland, who ardently promot­ed the reunification of the Dutch brotherhood, di­vided by schisms. In 1610 his congregation united with the Frisian congregation at Harlingen, which step was greatly censured by most Flemish Men­nonites, especially those in the province of Groningen. In 1608 Jelmer Pietersz, in the name of the Harlingen Flemish congregation, had written Deemoedige Remonstrantie to plead for the union of Flemish and Frisian Mennonites.
