- In 1981, Hendriksen & Reitsma built a new organ for the church of the Gereformeerde Gemeente on the Boezemsingel (also known as the Boezemsingelkerk) in Rotterdam, to replace the old organ of A.S.J. Dekker from 1927. Construction consultant was Dirk Janszoon Zwart. The organ was inaugurated on August 21, 1981 with a concert by the consultant. Some years later Hendriksen & Reitsma shifted the Flageolet 1' from the Rugwerk to a Terts 1 3/5'.
- Because the Boezemsingelkerk was closed in 2017, and demolished later, the organ was sold to the Gereformeerde Gemeente in Utrecht. They had built a new church in the Leidsche Rijn, to replace their old building, the Westerkerk, in the inner city of Utrecht. The new church has the name Nieuwe Westerkerk. Ide Boogaard renovated the organ and rebuilt it in Utrecht, under consultancy of Herman den Hollander and Dick den Engelsman. The case of the main organ (Hoofdwerk) was lifted about 75 centimeters. All ranks were revoiced in the new church room. And the organ case had been repainted in a light grey color. The inauguration took place on November 23, 2019 with a concert by Dick den Engelsman.
