Updated by Paul A. Walrath, naming this as the source of information: Cambridge Times, April 1991.
On April 16, 1989, arsonists started a fire that destroyed the church\'s annex/office wing. The main body of the church was saved, but the organ was destroyed.

The church rebuilt the annex and opened in April 1991. The pipe organ was replaced with a 4-manual Allen digital organ. Five of the facade pipes from the original Casavant remain in the casework.
