The prayers of a Tennessee church were answered when whoever stole a moving truck near its building didn't keep what they found inside: old organ pipes, and lots of them.

CHURCH MEMBERS HOPING WHOEVER STOLE TRUCKLOAD OF ORGAN PIPES WILL REPENT, SHIPMENT CAN BE RECOVERED

Calvary Episcopal Church in downtown Memphis had loaded a Penske truck earlier this month with nearly 2,000 organ pipes for transport to Spencer Organ Company in Boston, where they were to undergo restoration. But the truck was stolen after being loaded.

Nearly 2,000 organ pipes have been returned to the downtown Memphis church they were stolen from earlier this month.

A few days later police found the truck and many of the nearly 90-year-old pipes, but they recovered even more over the weekend, the church told news outlets. The latest recovery came after police got a CrimeStoppers tip on Sunday that led officers to a van that was parked near where they found the truck, the church said.
