First Church Campanelle and Ringers
Practices for both groups are held in the Bell Room!
Campanelle means ‘little bell’ and new bell ringers can find a way to share their love of music, and become part of a community of musicians, learning the joy of playing handbells. The group will build coordination skills while learning various handbell techniques. A knowledge of rhythms and the ability to read music are essential for success in this relatively new group. If you are interested in joining, please contact Jennifer Fry, Handbell Director, by emailing music@first-church.org.
The First Church Ringers is an adult handbell choir that rings five octaves of Whitechapel bells (some of the first handbells in Ohio) and five octaves of Malmark choir chimes. Rehearsals are held on Thursday evenings and the group participates in worship once a month. The bell ringers are led by Jennifer Fry, Handbell Director.
Coffee Hour
Sundays in Parish Hall following the 11:00 a.m. service
Coffee Hour & Coffee Sales are offered on the first and third Sundays of each month. It’s a great time to celebrate our church fellowship and connect with one another! Our Neighborhood Care Circle groups host the coffee hour and our Sacred Earth Committee sales Equal Exchange Coffee. The profits go to support small-scale farmers who protect our environment. A small percentage of the profit is spent on environmental improvements to our church property.
