2020-11-19 - Congregation no longer meets in the church building. They worship at Huntington Valley Chapel (on the campus of St. John's Episcopal Church). The Haskell replaced an earlier organ: "The new organ stands in the same position as the old one." -- The Times (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 23 July 1897 This organ was listed on a list published by the firm in 1910, probably indicating additional work or pipework additions. The church also bought a 1 manual Haskell organ for the Sunday School. The Jenkintown Campus has been sold and is being repurposed. Current status of the organ is unknown. -Paul R. Marchesano
