The Harlingen Dutch Reformed Church is in the Belle Mead, New Jersey section of Montgomery Township. The congregation was organized in 1727, and the minister was one of the major antagonists in the dispute between the traditionalists and the American party that contested governance of the Dutch Reformed Church. The church is still active.

The Reverend Johannes Arondeus, sent by the Classis of Amsterdam, was pastor from 1747 to 1754.
