NOTES
The organ was originally built for the Second Church of Christ, Scientist
(now the New Song Church near the Lloyd Center). The Choir division and a
new III-manual console were added by Austin in 1924.

The organ was purchased by Faith Lutheran Church and was moved to that
location by church volunteers. The facade pipes and the wood panels are
from the Austin organ built for the Catholic Cathedral in Yakima, WA.
The console and panels were refinished by the Bond firm. The facade
pipes were stenciled by Dean Applegate.
