October was an exciting month for Agnus Dei Lutheran Church in Gig Harbor with the installation of our new Fritts organ, Opus 47. The organ replaces Fritts Opus 31 that moved to the home of Carole Terry in Seattle.
Opus 47 includes specially designed pipe shades that depict the Lamb of God, sheaves of wheat, grapes, a chalice and loaves of bread to highlight the case made of Douglas fir. The organ has mechanical key and stop action, tremulant and zimbelstern.
The dedication of the organ and dedicatory concert will be scheduled later in 2021.
