Hendrik Laurensz (d. before 1770), a son of preacher Laurenz Hendriks, was (ca. 1714-1759) a minister of the Mennonite congregation at Nijmegen, Dutch province of Gelderland. In 1715 he was ordained as an elder by Jan Kroes (Crous) of Krefeld. He proved to be a good shepherd in the time the Nijmegen congregation had to endure many hardships. Together with his colleague Pieter Hendriks (Eger) he was the last untrained and unsalaried minister of Nijmegen.
