"This building, erected in 1786 and rebuilt

God, by the congregation of the Reformed
Church of Staten Island. The congregation
was organized in 1663 by the Reverend
Samuel Brisius, who began preaching on
Staten Island in 1660. The congregation
was the first religious organization on
Staten Island. At least two, possibly three
buildings preceded the erection of the
present edifice. A hexagonal building of
logs erected in 1751 was destroyed by the
British troops during the Revolution. A
more substantial building followed in 1785.
In 1844 the structure was rebuilt and
enlarged, upon the site occupied by the
present Church building. Following a
destructive fire in 1929 the interior of the
present building was completely
remodeled. More than 270 years have
gone by during which only 16 ministers
have served the congregation as pastors."
