Constant Church Bells

The sound of several church bells ringing at the same time opens your eyes to a gorgeous new day. As they ring, their individual calls seem to spill into one another, so that they form one continuous chorus. They herald all possibilities, and all change. The sounds of others talking quickly become muffled by the splendor of the bells.

A church bell is a bell which is rung in a church either to signify the hour or the time for worshippers to go to church, perhaps to attend a wedding, funeral, or otherservice. In Christianity, many Anglican, Catholic, and Lutheran churches ring their church bells from belltowers three times a day, at 6:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M. and 6:00 P.M., summoning the Christian faithful to recite the Lord’s Prayer, or the Angelus, a prayer recited in honour of the Incarnation of God. Before modern communication methods, in small communities church bells were also used to call the community together for secular purposes.
