Ballum, a village on the Dutch island of Ameland (coordinates: 53° 26′ 39″ N, 5° 41′ 20″ E). In 1883 a Mennonite congregation was organized here, which had formerly been a part of the Ameland congregation which embraced three villages, each later forming a separate congregation. Ballum was the smallest of the three; in 1914 it had a membership of 47; in 1950, 40, mostly farmers. They do not have the resources to employ a pastor of their own. The small, simple, but friendly church was dedicated on 21 October 1883 by Pastor Frerichs of Nes with a sermon on Deuteronomy 12.
