This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified from the 'History' page of the Church website which states,
Early one morning, an electrical fire happened in the front section of the church basement. Pastor Rodehorst went to his front door to see who was banging on it. A man passing the church had noticed the fire. The damage effected the large stained glass front window in the narthex, the pipe organ and there was smoke damage throughout the church building.
Thus began a remodeling program for a new pipe organ, new rose window, new narthex, two office areas, Mother’s room, new semi-interior entrance stairway with cloakroom and storage areas under the stairway entrance, and redecorating the sanctuary. Dedication of the renovated church was in 1958.
