Updated by David, who gave this as the source of the information: Google Search and knowledge of the area.

I have not been in this church in many, many years. At one time I believe this church was called the First United Methodist Episcopal. There is no mention of an organ on the church website, but a console is visible in pictures and their are grill/tone openings in the sanctuary. The last I knew, this organ was no longer there.
