ORGAN HISTORY
The OUSCDB indicates that this church had three pipe organs installed during it's history. The first instrument, installed in 1900, was a Jardine and Sons 2 manual organ with an unknown stop count. That instrument was replaced by M. P. Moller Opus 2149 which was a 1916 instrument that installed in Munholland in 1960, and which Munholland purchased from Rayne Memorial Methodist Church in New Orleans. That instrument was then replaced by Schantz Opus 1458, a 3 manual, 4 division, 26 rank instrument which is the current organ in use at the church.
