- In 1983, under consultancy of Gerard J. Mulder, Louis Kramer built a new organ for the Gereformeerde Ontmoetingskerk, Cornelis de Wittstraat 9 in Delft. The organ was put into use on October 7, 1983 with a recital by Nico van den Bos, organist of the church. At the time of delivery, a place was reserved on the Hoofdwerk for a Kromhoorn. A part of the wooden pipes has been taken over from the Sauer organ of the Westerkerk in Delft from 1923, that has been demolished.
- The Ontmoetingskerk was closed at the end of 2012. The organ was sold to the Apostolische Genootschap in Sittard. It was overhauled by Con Amore and installed in Sittard in 2015, where it could be inaugurated on April 12, 2015. The Kromhoorn 8' was installed at this time. It came from the organ of the Apostolische Genootschap, Badhuislaan in Hilversum.
- In the 2017 a woodcarving in the shape of a star was added to the music stand. In 2019 or 2020 a monogram of JSB (Johann Sebastian Bach) was positioned directly beneth the prospect pipes.
