Notes

2012-07-30 - The organ, Möller's Opus 6578, which was originally installed in 1937 in Zion Tabernacle in Zion, Illinois. It's not clear who installed in the organ in this facility. The church building was originally built with a glass cross as part of the roof, but this design didn't do well in the Michigan winters. -Database Manager
