Few in the congregation ever get to see the sanctuary from this perspective: looking out from the upper level of the organ chamber. Look closely and you may spot our evening custodian diligently running the vacuum down below.
The sanctuary was designed to hold 700 people when it was constructed in 1874, although it seats about 450 in its current configuration. (Originally the aisles were narrower, and there were more rows of pews -- extending forward roughly to where the pulpit and lectern are now.)
