Jim Stettner on January 19th, 2026:
This entry represents the moving and installation of a used organ for a new congregation in a new state. Identified through online information from Benjamin Torcellini [December 21, 2025]. The organ was originally built by the M.P Moller Organ Co. of Hagerstown, MD. for St. Mark's Episcopal Chapel in Storrs, CT., and was a stock model 'Artiste' instrument. The organ was rebuilt and enlarged by John Waggoner in the early 1960's. When St. Mark's purchased a new, much larger custom pipe organ in the late 1970's, the rebuilt Moller found a new home at St. Philip the Apostle.
