Notes

2008-04-28 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. Updated with solid-state switching in 1994. Offered for sale on churchorgantrader.com, October 2003, and again, July 2004, as the church was building new and larger quarters and wanted a larger organ. Offered for sale in <i>The American Organist</i>, September 2004. -Database Manager

2023-03-03 - The congregation moved to a suburban location at the same point and was renamed Centerpoint Church in 2022; a photo on the church website shows a pipe façade. -Jeff Scofield
