  • On March 27, 1990, a new organ was put into use in the church of the Gereformeerde Gemeente of Rotterdam South on the Mijnsherenplein. It was built by Hendriksen & Reitsma. A number of ranks from the previous organ of the church, an instrument bt the firm Rohlfing from 1935, were reused. The organ case was designed by architect J. Valk. The church building was decommissioned in 2005. It was then sold to the ecclesiastical community "Victory Outreach." The renovated church was opened on November 26 and 27, 2005.
  • The organ was dismantled by Ide Boogaard. After the construction of a new church for the Gereformeerde Gemeente in Barendrecht, it was rebuilt there after a restoration. Boogaard renewed the Roerfluit of the Hoofdwerk and replaced the Sifflet of the Bovenwerk with a Vox Celeste. The Werckmeister temperament was changed to equal. New foliage has been applied to the organ case. The organ was put into use on 7 September 2007. All organists of the church played the organ on this occasion: Jurgen Boer, Leo van Lagen, Jaap Roukens and Henk Versteeg.
