Notes: The organ was installed in the then-existing sanctuary in 1949. In 1967, a new Harold Wagoner-designed sanctuary was built and Aeolian-Skinner Op. 1463 was installed. The old sanctuary became the chapel. Op. 5001's console was re-leathered in 1991 by Goulding & Wood. In 2003, John Dower & Co. re-leathered the chests. The organ is now in excellent condition and a 55th anniversary rededication concert was held February 1, 2004.
