Beautiful!

[@adrianrichards9852]

Second Baptist Houston has probably the most beautiful sanctuary interior.

[@mitchweisiger5904]

Not anything more. They’ve taken the Chamade ranks out so they could put up screens and they took out the pews and put chairs in.

[@StoreeDenson]

@@mitchweisiger5904 They removed it because of a hurricane that affected the organ. The Trompeteria rank is not exposed anymore so they removed the fifth manual and had the ranks moved to the solo division.

[@StoreeDenson]

The hurricane was Hurricane Ike of 2008. The church also added a Gallery Division enclosed.

Does anyone know the name of the piece that is being played as the show ends as Diane is speaking at the end

[@StoreeDenson]

Henri Mulet tu es petra

[@fansofdianebish]

Diane's arrangement of the hymn Jesus Shall Reign

[@bobareebop]

I wonder why the church went with Rodgers on this project? Was price the driving factor?

[@mitchweisiger5904]

It’s a Rodgers all pipe organ and the cost was quite high
