Unlike the improbable and absurd adage "children should be seen and not
heard", First Presbyterian's Casavant Frères organ can be heard, but not seen.
Tastefully concealed within our Sanctuary, Miss Frances Adelaide Strong's
gift of a 52 Rank instrument is a fitting accompaniment to her equally
astounding gift of the Sea of Galilee window.
