  • In 1959, the Andreaskerk was built in Zwolle (Geert Grotestraat). Two years later an organ was taken into use, built by the local company R. Kamp & Zn. Due to the construction of new urban districts, the location of the Andreaskerk turned out to be unfavorable, so that a new building with the name 'De Hoeksteen' was erected. After its commissioning, the organ of the Andreaskerk was sold to the Gereformeerde Kerk of Oostkapelle. Until then an electronic Heyligers organ had been used in this church. The organ was taken into use in Oostkapelle in 1983.
  • The church building has the name Zionskerk. It has been part of the Protestant Church of the Netherlands since 2006. Due to a sharp decline in church attendance, it was decided in 2023 that the building has to be closed. The last church service is scheduled for May 28, 2023, Whit Sunday. There is already a buyer who wants to take over the church with the ground to build homes on this location.
