Nieuwe Pekela, NL
Enlarged in 1912, damaged by fire in 2003. In the night of 20/21 June 2003 there was a fire in the CGK. A short circuit is probably the cause. Renovation of the church building was already underway. Unfortunately, they can now start all over again. A year later, on 18 June 2004, the rebuilt and renovated church building was put back into use in a festive service. Using old photographs, the interior has been restored to its original state of construction in 1911, whereby a later renovation has also been undone. A "Johannus organ" has been placed behind an organ front purchased in Urk. This church is listed as a Municipal Monument of the Netherlands.
