2010-04-13 - Updated through on-line information from Chad Boorsma. -- The organ included ranks from the church's previous Austin organ. Reuter moved the organ to the new facility, built a new console, and expanded the organ to 32 ranks in 1981. In 2005, after failure of major components of the original Austin instrument, Reuter upgraded the instrument, including a new state of the art console and nine additional ranks of pipes. -Database Manager
