  • On May 30, 1985, a pipe organ was put into use in the chapel of the "Bethanië" nursing home in Ede. It was built by the Van Vulpen company in 1959. It is said to have been built for the Remonstrant Church in Amersfoort, and then moved to Ede in 1985 via the Reformed Grachtkerk (1971) and De Open Hof in Amersfoort. However, the organ from the Remonstrant Church in Amersfoort is now located in the Nicolai Church in Utrecht, so this story seems to be wrong.
  • In 2012, the home was expanded with a new section, which also includes a new church hall. The organ was transferred to this new church hall by the Van Vulpen company, which was put into use in December 2012. In 2023, the organ was expanded with an independent pedal with four digital stops.
