- In 1894 Carl Elfström built an organ for Uråsa Kyrka with eight stops. In 1920 Olof Hammarberg carried out a renovation. The instrument was transferred to Skogslyckans Kyrka in Växjö in 1955. This church was dedicated on June 6, 1943. The building was designed by Adolf Wiman and was intended as a cemetery chapel. In 1966 the chapel was converted and expanded into a parish church. A new organ was built by Anders Perssons in Elfström's organ case with twelve stops. Church and organ were consecrated on December 21, 1966.
- A new organ was placed on the gallery in 1990 by Magnussons Orgelbyggeri. It is not clear what happened to the old organ.
