- Park Road Moravian Church in Charlotte, North Carolina was founded in 1962. The company W. Zimmer & Sons built an organ for this church in 1970. The adviser was the organist of the church, Alan Wingard. He also performed the inauguration concert on November 22, 1970. The Krummhorn of Positiv was shifter from 16' to 8' in 1985.
- The name of the church was later changed to Peace Moravian Church. Around 1990, the congregation moved into a new building, 9201 Bryan Farms Road. In 2015 it was decided to sell this building, due to the shrinkage of the number of members. Since then they have met in the building of the Little Church on the Lane, 522 Moravian Lane.
- It is not certain, but it is likely that the Zimmer organ was sold or demolished in 1990.
