The Phelps Organ

The organ was built by Lawrence Phelps and Associates, Erie, Pennsylvania and was dedicated during worship on September 25, 1977. There were 3 dedicatory recitals given that fall: William Ness on Sunday, September 25, 1977, Gerhard Krapf on Sunday, October 9, 1977, and Gillian Weir on Sunday, November 20, 1977. The key action is mechanical and the stop action, electrical, with electronic solid-state registration aids. There are three divisions played from two keyboards of 56 notes each and the pedalboard 32 notes. The organ has 25 stops composed of 35 ranks of pipes—a total of 1,674 pipes
