The Organ Still Sings

Next date: Saturday, October 04, 2025 | 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Roseann Penner Kaufman and Donna Hetrick will explore music in the Gesangbuch mit Noten, a hymnal published by the General Conference of the Mennonite Church of North America in Berne, IN in 1890. The copy of this hymnal belonging to Wilhelmina Van der Smissen, who donated the organ to Bethel College in 1910, was recently found at an estate sale and will be displayed. This organ continues to create music today just as it has since 1750.
