Notes

2012-05-02 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- This was a rebuild of a 1930 4/63 Welte-Trippe; the Möller was replaced in 1971 by a 3-manual Allen so that the chamber space could be used for the church's radio ministry; the Allen was replaced in 2003 by a 3/15 Wicks with much digital. -Database Manager

2017-05-07 - Rebuild, tonal changes and new console by Moller in 1958 as Op. R-601; replaced by Allen 1972, which was replaced by a 3/15 Wicks hybrid in 2002. -Database Manager
