The organ was carefully designed to reveal the magnificent stain-glass windows in the east apse, and allows the center window to be fully viewed for the first time. The organ was dedicated during the Great Jubilee 2000 year.

The organ was built by Rosales Organ Builders, Inc., of Los Angeles, California. It comprises four divisions, with 49 speaking stops derived from 37 stops and 50 ranks. It has electric key and stop action, and is controlled from a new four-manual master console. The organ utilizes five ranks of pipework from the 1926 Casavant organ, a gift of Joseph A. Baillargeon, which stood behind the old high altar.
