Asbury First United Methodist Church - Rochester, NY

*Organ & Organists

Organ music plays a very important role in the Asbury First worship experience. In early 1996 our Austin organ was refitted with a new, state of the art, digital action. This important upgrade into the future has enhanced the overall capabilities of our organ and allowed us to offer even more of this wonderful instrument in worship and concert.
