Notes

2010-07-22 - Identified through on-line information from Chad Boorsma. -- The organ was originally built by M. P. Möller in 1950 as their Opus 8044. It was moved to this new facility in 1966. The console may have been refinished to match the furnishings of the new sanctuary, and at some point, the drawknobs and coupler tablets were probably replaced. Otherwise the organ appears unaltered. -Database Manager
