Musicians at Our Savior’s Lutheran
We have a strong history at OSLC of providing skilled, professional and quality music. Our worship services include traditional liturgical music and hymns played on our beautiful Jaeckel Pipe Organ. Dan Jaeckel, of Duluth Minnesota, is renown as one of the most respected organ builders in the world. This fall we had a Zimbelstern installed with the organ, a memorial gift from the Moberg family, that plays chimes in accompaniment with the music. Our organists are Kristen Weikum, Ginny Ahrlin, and Mark Ongalo, all professional musicians who continue to broaden their skills and knowledge in classical music to assist us in our worship at Our Savior’s. It is quite rare for a church to be blessed with 3 accomplished organists, and even more rare to have a Jaeckel Pipe Organ with a Zimbelstern – the only one north of Duluth, Minnesota.
