Built by: Bedient Pipe Organ Company (2008) - opus 81
In 2008, the company Bedient built an organ for the First Congregational Church in Sioux Falls. In fact, Bedient's work meant a thorough conversion of the organ that the Reuter Organ Company built for this church in 1967. The organ got a new prospect, a new organ case, a new console and was expanded with a number of stops. Some of the pipes and wind chests are from 1967. There are also three ranks by M.P. Möller Organ Company, dating from 1921.
