Nieuw Apostolische Kerk

Blokker, NL

Beautiful modern church, somewhat in the form of a North Holland farmhouse, with, among other things, series of stained glass windows. Replaced previous church locations of the New Apostolic Community of Hoorn and surroundings. Remarkably, unlike almost all other NAP churches, the well-known emblem is not placed on the front facade, but on top of the roof.

Nieuw Jeruzalemkerk

Emmeloord, NL

The New Jerusalem Church in Emmeloord was built as a Reformed Church. Willem van Leeuwen delivered an organ in 1955. It was restored by Kaat & Tijhuis in 1982. The Mixture of the Main Work was changed by them from VI-VIII strong to IV strong. The church building has been in use as a PKN church since June 2006. The organ was overhauled in 2008. The Ruispijp IV strong of the pedal was replaced by a Roerquint 5 1/3', probably by the firm Kaat & Tijhuis, who also maintain the organ. A few years later, the Octaaf 2' of the Rugwerk and the Nachthoorn 2' of the Main Work were swapped.
