Jim Stettner on January 7th, 2022:
The transplanted Moller was replaced by a new Pasi in 2021. Disposition of the Moller is not currently known.

Database Manager on January 22nd, 2017:
This is a new home for an organ that was altered when it was moved from another location. <br>Identified by Steven Bartley, who maintains the organ.<br>The organ is installed in a chamber at the front/center of the church, behind the altar & Choir. Newcomer reused the wind chests, though removed the pneumatic actions and installed electro-mechanical solenoids for each pipe. As the firm worked with Moller, as installer/removers they purchased some new pipe work & console for this installation. The manual windchests appear to be the standard Moller pouchboard design, but with membrane pitmans. One primary was left in place, though now unused. This may indicate that the present electric action may have happened some time after the installation.<br>Pipe work new to the organ consists of: Swell- 8 Geigen, 4 Principal, 16/8 Trompette, 4 Oboe, III mixture 1'. For the Great-Twelfth ,Fifteenth, 8 Unda Maris, Krummhorn. The original Great Diapason is played on the Pedal only, as 8 & 4, with the original Swell Diapason taking over the role as Great Diapason. The wind pressure of 3 3/4 appears to be original or near original as there is no indication that the toe openings have been changed.
