The Ring (district) Akkrum is a union of Mennonite congregations in Friesland for the purpose of mutual support in preaching and instruction of baptismal candidates, especially in the case of a vacant pulpit or the illness of a minister. In addition to Ring Akkrum there are in the province also Ring Bolsward and Ring Dantumawoude. Ring Akkrum is the oldest and was founded in 1837 by the historian Steven Blaupot ten Cate, who was the Mennonite minister in Akkrum 1830-1839.
The first congregations to unite in the Ring were Akkrum, Baard, Gorredijk-Lippenhuizen, Grouw, Irnsum-Poppingawier, Joure, Kromwal, Oldeboorn,Terhorne, Tjalleberd, Warga and IJlst. After Ring Bolsward was organized Baard, Kromwal (now called IJtens), and IJlst joined the latter. In 1955, the congregations in the Akkrum Ring were Akkrum, Grouw, Irnsum-Poppingawier, Warga, Leeuwarden, Drachten, Tjalleberd, Heerenveen, Bovenknijpe, Gorredijk, Terhorne, Joure and Wolvega.
