Dear
Friends, Where
is the bell?
I have been
interested in the old photograph of the church which shows the twin towers that
the church building used to have. Many
years ago, these towers were taken down due to maintenance problems.
However, I recently had a conversation with a church member who said the
church used to ring the church bell that was once in the towers.
I did not know there was once a bell in one of those structures.
One of the stained glass windows that used to be in the towers is still
in the basement of the sanctuary.
Does anyone
know what happened to the bell? There
have been cases in other churches where special items were put in storage
somewhere, and then forgotten. Sometimes
bells break or some other damage happens to them.
So, if anyone knows or has a clue, contact the church and let us know.
Rev. Randy Walworth
