School handbell choir

Students in grades 6-8 are invited to join our School Handbell Choir. The ability to read music, be attentive and work well with others are all characteristics required for handbell ringers. We find students who play in band or who have studied piano are well-suited for this ministry. The handbell choir rehearses in church on most Tuesdays after school until 3:45 pm and rings at school liturgies throughout the year and at other special occasions as requested. Many of the students in handbell choir are also involved in Drama Club. We work out our schedules together so that students who wish may participate in both activities with fewer conflicts. Our schedule of rehearsals and liturgies will be available by the first week of September and rehearsals begin a couple weeks later. Interested parents can always request it before committing their children to music ministry. For more information or questions, contact Mary Bellman at 683-0105 or mbellman@stcolumban.org.
