Notes

2009-08-26 - Identified through online information from Chad Boorsma. -- The organ was removed from the church's former sanctuary in 1999 by Fowler Organ Company (Lansing, Michigan). The church built a new sanctuary on the same site and dedicated it in 2001. Fowler was responsible for installing the organ in the new building. -Database Manager
