Notes
2021-03-18 - From the Twin Cities AGO Organ List: It has a beautiful 8-rank manual organ rebuild from the middle east that was installed in the later 1990's. The organ was installed at a bargain at $40,000 raised by the church and installed with much help of the choir. The choir did much of the woodwork, flooring and general manual labor, including dismantling the old organ. I was a part of that choir from 1992-2002. -- Jarrod Schoenecker, 2020 -Jim Stettner
2021-06-21 - Found a photo of the keydesk by David Lim which clearly shows the organ was built Moller. Since it was moved, we do not know original location or opus -David Engen
