Frank Hoffman Scholarship Fund

Organ Restoration Fund

Ebenezer's mighty Möller organ organ has accompanied our worship since 1964 and the time has come to perform some long overdue and costly refurbishment, so that it will be preserved for generations to come. Hear a few of Ebenezer's members reflect on the importance of the organ in our worship in this video. You can give to this fund here by selecting “Organ Fund.”
