Sanctuary

Sanctuary 1921

The original sanctuary was remodeled in 1932. The project, overseen by Mr. Ernest Bandhold, added a curved arch as well as a room on each side of the chancel for the pastor and the choir. Three new beautiful stained-glass windows highlighted the north wall. These windows were given by Mr. Karl Stroh, a staunch supporter of the church. To highlight the windows in the evening, an electric light was installed outside. The pulpit was re-located and the altar raised slightly. The walls and ceiling were painted in an ivory color to blend with the color scheme of the windows. The most notable improvement was the installation of a Wicks two-manual pipe organ, a gift of the Ladies Aid Society. The work was done mostly by men of the congregation in order to keep the expenses at a minimum.
