  • Under the advice of the GOV, an organ was built in 1951/1952 for the Gereformeerde Kerk, Vierheemskinderenstraat in the Moerwijk district of The Hague. This church had been inaugurated on September 2nd, 1951. The builder of the organ was Willem van Leeuwen, who built the organ as one of the first instruments from his workshop with VEKA-slides. The organ was taken into use on April 9, 1952. The organ was located in a closed room, behind the wall of the church. The console is located separated from the organ. The simple front consisted of a few principal pipes, that were non-speaking. During the inauguration the organ was played by five organists, namely Messrs Vos, Jelgersma, Van den Bilt, Heijns and Verbrugge.
  • From 1968, the church was in use by the Baptist Church. Around 1980 the Schalmei was replaced by a Koppelfluit 8'. The small fake front has also been removed.
  • In 2022 the church building was sold to the Christian City Church C3. The last service of the Baptist community was on March 27, 2022. Because the C3-community do not use the organ, it was sold via Pels & Leeuwen. It is not known where it went, presumably abroad.
