The organ of First Baptist Church was built in 1966 by Casavant Freres, St-Hyacinthe, Quebec, and is their Opus 2875. Located in the rear gallery along with the Choir, it speaks clearly and directly into the sanctuary and is a fine example of the so-called “neo-classic” instruments produced while Lawrence Phelps was Tonal Director at Casavant.
