CHANCEL BELLS
The Chancel Bell Ministry at Faith brings the beautiful sound
of bells to worshipers on a regular basis. The sound of the
bells often touches the heart of the listener in ways that
words cannot. Through the music of bells, presented in a
variety of styles, the Chancel Bells add to the worship
experience by sharing special music and accompanying hymns.
For some Chancel Bell members, this ministry is their primary
“small group” where they receive support, have fun, and enjoy
learning to work together to lead worship through music. While
it is difficult to add new ringers to the group, there is always a
need for substitutes and many have become regular ringers over
time.
Practice Schedule:
The Chancel Bells meet from September through May. Rehearsals
take place on Sundays in the Sanctuary from 6:30-8:00 pm.
Worship Ringing Schedule:
The Chancel Bells minister approximately once a month at
traditional services and occasionally in other venues and
settings. They sometimes join with the Chancel Choir and
other instrumentalists for multigroup numbers.
Occasionally, members ring so
lo or in small ensembles,
sometimes playing for events outside of worship, such as
weddings.

Celebrating 20+ years of Ringing!
In 2009, Faith Community commemorated 20 years of
our handbell ministry. The first three-octave set of bells
was purchased in the spring of 1989, and two more octaves
were added in 2000 and 2005. Over the 20-year period, 80
youth and 50 adults have participated in the bell ministry
at FCUMC. We give glory to God for the gift of these bells
and the service of those who ring them to enhance our
worship.

MEN OF FAITH
Started in 1992, the Men of Faith now have about 20 full-time
members of varied backgrounds and talents. The group strives
to glorify God through performances at Faith as well as an
extensive music outreach program (see list below). We
welcome anyone who desires to sing harmony, enjoy fellowship,
have relaxed fun, and achieve a sense of accomplishment.
The music ranges from hymns, anthems, classical, barbershop,
gospel, western, patriotic, glee club, Christmas and spirituals,
sung accompanied or a cappella. Whatever the song, the
group enjoys personal growth that comes with practice,
performance and outreach to share God’s glory.
