Under the advice of Scott Mouton, the church's organist, Hellmuth Wolff built a three-manual organ for the Foundry United Methodist Church in Houston in 2001. The organ was inaugurated on November 10, 2001 with a concert by Christopher Young. Two registers (Chalemy 8' and Cor de Nuit 2') were taken from the Pels organ (1958) of Travis Park Methodist Church in San Antonio, which was demolished in 1985.
