  • SCHOENSTEIN ORGAN G 2008 G DEDICATORY CONCERT SERIES G from the RECTOR G
    CHRIST & S AINT STEPHEN ’S EPISCOPAL CHURCH SCHOENSTEIN ORGAN g 2008 g DEDICATORY CONCERT SERIES g FROM THE RECTOR g AN OLD ADAGE SAYS THAT GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS. We have had reason to ponder this wisdom at Christ & Saint Stephen’s Church over the past four years. What began as disaster has blossomed into blessing, and we are reminded once again that the grace of God is frequently unpredictable… and always abundant. Our beautiful pipe organ represents the culmination of an extensive restora- tion of our church, and is its crowning glory. But the genesis of this historic project came not after years of planning and study, but on an ordinary weekday evening in May 2004, when a portion of our church ceiling collapsed. Investigation that revealed a dangerous and inadequate substructure required the complete demolition of our 19th century ceiling. Discovered in the midst of the rubble, like decorated eggs found on Easter morning, was lovely stenciling from the original 1876 walls. This inspired our vestry to commit to a complete restoration of our interior. And since plaster dust filled the pipes of our old, ailing organ, which experts pronounced “not worth cleaning,” we undertook the challenge of replacing it. The financial realities of such a project were daunting for a parish our size and we give thanks that many friends and neighbors have helped this dream come to life. A list of contributors is included in this booklet and we are grateful to them all. It is indeed a great pleasure to present the first organ ever to be built in the great City of New York by Schoenstein & Co.
