The Nicolaaskerk is the third church at its current location at Dorpsstraat 24 in the old center of Zoetermeer. After the use of a hidden church on the Voorweg, two plots of land could be bought here after the Batavian Republic and the first church for the parish was built. It became so bad in a short time that a completely new church was needed in 1857. After some time, this church turned out to be too small and on March 17, 1915, the foundation stone was laid for the current one. In 1916 the church was consecrated by the bishop Augustinus Callier of Haarlem. The current Nicholas Church is a national monument.

Ecclesiastical centre De Oase in the Dutch city of Zoetermeer at Kerkenbos 8 used to be a neglected gymnasium with associated changing rooms and shower rooms. This was bought in 1999 for f 292,000 from the municipality of Zoetermeer. After a renovation, the centre was officially opened in February 2000 for the benefit of the Protestant community of De Oase. With this, this congregation returned to the location where the first worship services took place between 1972 and 1976, in the 'Aanloopcentrum'. In the intervening period, church was held in the municipal community center in the Meerzicht district, which was demolished in 2001. J. Bouwmeester acted as designer and construction expert. The building covers approx. 550 m².
