The Organ at Lutheran Church of Our Saviour

Organ Pipes

The pipe organ at Our Saviour Lutheran Church, originally built and installed by Austin Organs, Inc. in 1959, was rebuilt by Quimby Pipe Organs, Inc. in 1999. The rebuilt organ is a two manual electro-pneumatic instrument consisting of 1,190 pipes arranged in 19 ranks and 22 stops. In addition to a versatile array of diapasons, flutes, and strings, the specifications include three reeds, a 32' digital Lieblich Gedeckt, chimes, and a Zymbelstern. 32 levels of combination action memory facilitate registration changes. The instrument is well suited to its unusually live acoustical environment (ideal for organ music). Colorful individual stops combine to form a powerful "full organ" sound that belies the actual size of the instrument.

With grief, frustration, or injury come tears of pain.  St. Paul preached Christ crucified and risen again, the very source of the joy Paul wanted everyone to know.  When many lived as enemies of the cross of Christ and ignored His forgiveness, Paul was brought to tears.  For whom do our tears flow?  For those who don't know Christ?  The same crucified and risen Christ can wipe away all tears.
