Saint Francis of Assisi is fortunate to have a splendid organ in our church. The instrument is a 3 Manual Rodgers 958 Masterpiece.  Installed at the same time as the choir loft was upgraded, in 2006 in memory of Lucy Winter, this organ graces the church with both grace and power. Because of the size of the instrument,  it is able to produce a wide range of sounds from the softest flute stops to the most powerful reed stops.
