Updated through on-line information from Lowell Ray Anderson. -- The console described above is in the organ loft, in the center of the picutre. There is an identical movable console on the main floor of the sanctuary. The organ has not been used for several years due to the cost of needed repairs. An electronic organ is being used in its place.
