The Evangelical Reformed Church in Angola was established in 1925 in Kikaya, Uige Province in the north by Swiss and English missionaries, especially Archibald Patterson from Liverpool and Ernest Nickleus of the Swiss Reformed Church.
The Mission of Northern Angola covered the Northern part of Angola, included the cities of Kikuya, Kinkuni, and Kimbela.
During the Angolan Civil War, the church suffered persecution, and properties were destroyed.
It is primarily strong in the Eastern part of the country though it is present in 11 provinces out of the 18 in Angola.
[2] The Presbyterian Church of Angola separated from the denomination in 1986 under the leadership of Neves Massaqui.
