JANUARY 26, 2020 † ORDINARY TIME III

M y Dear Parish Family,

Recently, our parish was giPed a small

2-rank pipe organ from a church in South

Carolina that was renova8ng and geQng a

larger instrument. This is a great

addi8on to our church as pipe

organs are very expensive and

there was no cost to our parish.

I have donated the costs of

moving, refurbishing and

installa8on of the instrument in

memory of my parents, Leo &

Dorothy Kowalski.

As you can see from the

pictures, this instrument is very

compact and perfect for us, as a

worthy addi8on to the electric piano currently in use, and

the guitars, etc. employed by our Spanish coro.

APer discussion with the organ builder who is overseeing

this project and the

installa8on, and with the

input and support of the

parish council, it was

decided that the best

loca8on of the organ would

be directly in front of the cry

room window on the Saint

Francis (right side) of the

church. The electric piano

and the instruments of

the Spanish coro will also

be moved from their

current loca8on and

consolidated all together

with the organ. A few of

the exis8ng pews will be

removed and relocated

over to the Saint Joseph side. The remaining pews near

the organ will then be able to be

used for the choir and for other

instrumentalists etc. as needed,

and for “overflow” sea8ng, again

as needed. The organ will be

installed by the end of March,

but the shiPing of the pews will

occur shortly. With the installa8on of the organ, the cry

room on the Saint Francis side will be decommissioned

and taken out of service. The Cry Room on the Saint

Joseph’s side will remain for use for parents with children

age 4 and under only and will be monitored by the

ushers.

I understand it is an adjustment for some, but it is

also a wonderful giP to SFA! Fr. Eric
