In July of 2018, Calvary Episcopal Church purchased the Schoenstein Opus 84 (1981) Pipe Organ to replace the 1971 Moeller organ. The organ was originally installed at Star of the Sea Roman Catholic Church in San Francisco, CA, and had been held in storage for several months. William Visscher of Hupalo and Repasky Pipe Organs, LLC, was assigned to the job of configuration, installation, and tonal finishing. To help minimize cost, Calvary agreed to supply labor and assistance for removal of the Moeller Organ and installation of the Schoenstein. The work of the Calvary volunteers was coordinated and overseen by parishioner, Alex Johnson. The organ installation was completed in February, 2019. A splendid Inaugural Recital was given by Bruce Neswick, of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, Portland, Oregon, on Friday, March 22nd with a second recital given by Michael Murray of St. Philip’s Anglican Church, Vancouver, British Columbia on Sunday, May 12th.
