History
The church organ is a two manual Austin pipe organ with thirteen ranks of pipes.
Installed when the church was built in the early 1970's it served the church
well.
In September of 2008 this pipe organ was combined with a digital Quantum 325C
Allen organ. The 50 stop three-manual console has American Classic, English
Cathedral, Cavaille-Coll, Schlicker, Arp Schnitger, and Orchestral suites.
Along with advanced MIDI capabilities, the organ also has an antiphonal organ
in the back of the church. The blending of pipe sounds and digital sounds is
voiced beautifully.
