[d] = digital ranks
Bethel Lutheran Church is now home to Wicks Opus 4400 originally installed and playable in the Wicks Studio. Construction on the instrument began in 1963 and until recently has performed service in the company studio for Wicks demonstrations.

Already a large instrument at over 60 ranks of pipes, many additional upgrades and modernizations took place for installation in Bethel Lutheran Church.
