“The Synod merged in 1934 with the Reformed Church in America; the subsequently formed Evangelical and Reformed Church.”

This is incorrect. The Reformed Church in America is the Dutch heritage Reformed denomination (formerly: “Reformed Protestant Dutch Church,” dating to 1628 in New Amsterdam/New York City). The Niebuhrs were of the German Evangelical Synod of North America.

Thank you for your comment.
The article has been corrected to show that they were members of the German Evangelical Synod.
Thank you again for taking the time to help make NWE a valuable information resource.
