Builder: Wahl Organbuilders, Opus 5, 1979/1991
Manuals: 2
Ranks: 46
Action: Mechanical

Notes: Ronald Wahl originally built this fully mechanical organ in 1979. For registrational assistance, the mechanical stop action includes (auxiliary slider) ventils in each division controlling the compound mutations, mixtures, and reeds. In 1991, the church undertook a major renovation of the sanctuary, replacing thick absobent batting with a hard plaster ceiling, replacing carpeting with a new quarry tile floor, and gave the walls fresh coats of paint to reduce sound absorption. Wahl Organbuilders took the opportunity to tonally regulate the instrument to take advantage of the improved acoustics. Wahl Organbuilders added a 32' Grand Bourdon in 1997.
