Jim Stettner on August 8th, 2026:

This entry is believed to represent the installation of a 'new' organ created from recycled pipes and equipment. Identified through online information from Matthew Henry [August 1, 2026].

Matthew Henry on August 2nd, 2026:

Instrument was present during my first visit to the church ca. June 2025. I tried to start the instrument then, but about a half-dozen pipes ciphered at once and I didn't try anything further. A sign was taped to the console saying the organ is not functional. The instrument was still there during my visit on 8/2/2026, but I didn't try it. Pipes are placed on exposed chests around the small choir loft on the back wall and the people's left side wall. I'm planning to reach out to the current pastor and a couple previous pastors I know to see if they can provide any further information.
