- In 1970 Flentrop supplied an organ for the Griffin Chapel of Florida Presbyterian College. This school is now called Eckerd College. This chapel was built in 1968/1969 and was named after Ben Hill Griffin Jr., who made possible the construction of the chapel thanks to a large donation. The building was inaugurated on March 9, 1969. The Flentrop organ was inaugurated in February 1971 with a concert by Albert de Klerk.
- The chapel was renovated in 2006/2007. The name was then modified to Wireman Chapel in memory of Billy O. Wireman (1933-2005). The building was reopened on May 18, 2007.
