Notes: The chancel area is free-standing and surrounded by three walls of stained-glass windows in the large rectangular contemporary building. In 1976, the organ was moved from the old sanctuary to the new (present) one and installed in towers to each side of the rear chancel screen. The side and front walls are almost completely made up of stained-glass windows, so the entire chancel and organ towers are freestanding.

In 1978, a 4/71 Schantz was installed in the rear gallery, with a master console controlling both organs, but omitting the Aeolian-Skinner's prepared-for stops.
