Notes
2020-05-20 - Enlargement of Moller pipe organ, fitting it with Peterson MSP stop control system, bar graphs for all expression shoes. Great, Swell, and Pedal are at the front of the church, part of it centered, and sections on the sides as well. The Choir division is in a chamber behind the left (North) gallery. The Echo speaks through a small opening into the rear (West) gallery. -John Gouwens
