- In 1860, Vollebregt supplied an organ for the Sint Petrus church in Berlicum with 26 stops. The instrument was installed in a organ case manufactured by the firm Goossens from 's-Hertogenbosch. The Franssen company installed a largely new interior in the old case in 1914. In 1933 Verschueren had completely rebuilt the instrument into an electro-pneumatic organ of 25 registers on two manuals and pedal (opus 55). The organ case was demolished after serious war damage, which had been sustained in 1944. Action and stop list have also been modified after the war, when the organ was rebuilt by Verschueren as opus 158. Two stops of the current organ are still from Vollebregt. In 1986 the company Pels & Van Leeuwen carried out an overhaul, during which the organ was completely cleaned and the pedal keyboard was renewed. The instrument was put back into use on November 2, 1986.
- In January 2012, it was announced that the church building would be closed at the first of July 2012. The organ was donated to the Gereformeerde Gemeente in Nederland in Leerdam. This congregation was planning to build a new church. The organ was dismantled by Gijs de Kruif at the end of September 2014.
- The new church was inaugurated on December 19, 2019. After this the organ has been installed by Gijs de Kruijf together with volunteers from the congregation. It was enlarged with a number of stops. On Friday Januari 31, 2020, the organ was inaugurated. Pieter Heykoop played the organ during this evening.
