Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The church is closing, and this Sunday (6/27/08) will be the last services. The church will be officially closed as of July 1. The fate of the organ is as yet undecided.
Database Manager on June 13th, 2007:
Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This was a "new" organ created from the merger of two Lutheran churches and their instruments: 1) Christ Lutheran Free and its 1948 Balcom and Vaughan (Op. 456); and 2) Bethany Lutheran (Fairview) and its used, 1919 W.W. Kimball (Op. 6515). The console is retained from the Christ Lutheran Free organ as is the Swell pipework and chest. The Great is from the Bethany Lutheran Kimball.
