Hand Bells

Summer Bells

Summer Bells is also a possibility for young ringers in Grades 4-8 if there’s enough interest to give it a go. If you have a student who is interested in trying (or rejoining) handbells, please give Ruth a call and we’ll see where it leads!

Peals of Praise

This adult handbell choir rehearses on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., September through May, (8:00 p.m. during Advent & Lent). The choir plays approximately once a month and for special worship services as scheduled. The Peals of Praise attend the Minnesota Valley Handbell Festival in the spring.
Director: Ruth Mackie

The Shepherd's Bells

The Shepherd’s Bells, our elementary handbell choir for students in grades 5-8, is looking for ringers. We hope to establish a quorum of ringers (seven to nine) and then determine a rehearsal time for the group – but we need to know who’s “out there.” If your child is interested in ringing – whether (s)he is new to the group or returning - please contact Ruth.
Director: Ruth Mackie

Bells of Grace

Bells of Grace will become Bells of Grace Plus for the month of December to prepare anthems for the Children’s Christmas Service and also for the Fourth Sunday in Advent. Please check with Bonnie for your rehearsal schedule, as we won’t be able to squeeze those in on Wednesday nights. Our ringers are too busy.
