Upon completion the Gemshorn 8' and the Trumpet of the Main Work were reserved. These were never installed again. In 1950 the firm De Koff & Zn. carried out a revision. They placed the third choir of the Sesquialter as an independent register on the reserved slide of the Trumpet 8'. The firm SF Blank restored the organ in 1990. The Sesquialter was restored.

The church was built in 1860 (see the facade stone in the left side wall). Since then, the front facade has not been changed, but the windows in the side walls, which illuminate the service rooms, have. These were renewed in the 1930s, but the old situation can still be recognized. The two diagonally placed closing sides also have renewed windows that were probably installed in the 1930s. The interior will have been renovated in the same period. The current wooden vault shows the characteristics of that period (1930s character). What the original vault looked like can no longer be determined.

This architecturally very interesting, special church (architect JA Smits), with a small tower, was called the "Small Church" since the local SOW / PKN process, opposite the Reformed "Large Church" of Tj. Kuipers. In the long term, the PKN Halfweg-Zwanenburg only wanted to maintain this "Small Church", which was being restored and redesigned for this purpose from around the end of 2009 to spring 2011. Delays in the implementation of these plans arose due to the fact that all of this had to be financed from the proceeds of the (eventually to be demolished) Reformed "Large Church". In terms of architecture and layout, this Small Church is somewhat similar to Anglican churches and cathedrals in Great Britain, especially the elongated and straight-ended choir.

In 1659, construction of this church began. The Middelburg stained glass artist Cornelis Van Barlaar made three windows that were placed in the east facade (1660-1661). The oak wall paneling next to the pulpit (priest's chancel) is from the previous medieval church, as is the separation between the chairs and the garden. The copper chandelier is a gift from the local preacher Lucas Schortinghuis, late 18th century. During the liberation in 1944, the tower was destroyed. Reconstruction in a modified form took place in 1947.
