The church was soon forced to close because of financial problems brought on by the Great Depression and the organ was acquired by Occidental College, Los Angeles. It was installed in Thorne Hall with the addition of the Gamba Celeste in the Solo and dedicated on October 3, 1938. The Skinner console was replaced in 1961 by one built by Schantz. The organ was offered for sale by the Wicks Organ Company in 2006. Sold to St. Anthony Catholic Church, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 2008.
