The Organ

A Rodgers Inspire 227 digital pipe organ was installed in 2025, the gift of an anonymous donor. It replaced a small, aging pipe organ. The new organ, with Rodger’s innovative “Voice Palette” system, provides a total of 135 high-quality pipe organ voices–recorded from actual pipes. The organist can experiment with an infinite combination of voices in various styles and have access to orchestral voices, such as piano, harpsichord, harp, strings, trumpet and handbells.

The Piano

 An Estonia grand piano was installed in 2015, purchased with funds from the Harald and Saralice Petersen Arts and Letters Fund. The instrument was selected by a committee comprised of Bonnie Clasen, Bill Krueger, and Harry and Christine Johansen. While other pianos were within the budget, the committee agreed that the beautiful sound of the Estonia piano was the most desirable.

Estonia pianos are handcrafted in the German tradition with highly-refinds and crafted parts. The sound board is Swiss or Austrian Alpine spruce. The case is Baltic birch. Its rich, warm tone enhances worship.

Each instrument, on its own, is capable of solo performance or accompaniment. Put them together and you get a powerful sound, as in this clip of a rehearsal last October by pianist Christine Johansen and organist Chuck Parsons.
