Notes

2014-06-23 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by James R. Stettner, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- The organ is a new instrument made from recycled pipes and windchests from varying sources. The facade is new, and the 16' Posaune extension contains the only new pipes in the instrument. The organ was dedicated Sunday, March 2, 2014 by Kevin Hildebrand of Concordia Theological Seminary. -Database Manager
