The repairs needed to fix the organ have been approved by the diocese and Father Stowe gave me the green light to contact Rodgers Organs of New England to do the work. Parts will need to be ordered. I'm suspecting a 3-4 week turnaround time, but hope to have a more accurate time frame sometime next week.
In the meantime...
