The Holy Spirit Organ

Holy Spirit is home to a glorious two-manual, mechanical-action instrument installed by Richard Bond Organ Builders in 1999. Occasional organ concerts are offered. 

The John Ellis Endowment for Liturgical Music was established in 1996 to honor the memory of our longtime organist John Ellis, a renowned performer on the organ, carillon, and harpsichord, and a dedicated and beloved teacher and mentor to organists in the Northwest. The Endowment has provided internships to promising young musicians at The University of Montana.
