The tour and concert together take 1 hour. and begin in the Patio Room, accessed from Hamilton Ave. Three such events are scheduled throughout the year.

Learn how the Sanctuary was constructed, what prior church buildings existed on this site, and how the histories of this church and Palo Alto are related. Visit the Chapel, main Sanctuary, lower level facilities, Memorial Garden, and both levels of the Education-Administration building. The Sanctuary visit includes presentations on the building’s construction, histories of the Speidel and antiphonal organs and their features, and the organ concert. Learn about the wide range of church and community activities that occur on Sundays and all week long, about how this congregation and facility serve the community and the world.
