There are two groups for children to participate in the handbell ministry at SUMC.

Rainbow Ringers

The Rainbow Ringers is for kids preschool and up to learn the basics of making music. In this group, they learn how to hold and treat the instruments, playing only when they’re supposed to, the difference between loud and soft, and much more. Kids learn how to ring by reading circles with their note names on them when the director points to their note. This group meets after the contemporary service on Sundays, around 10:00 am, for about 20 minutes.

Junior Clocktower Ringers

The Jr. Clocktower Ringers is for children who are ready to learn how to read sheet music and play with a group. They learn note names and how to read rhythms, dynamic markings, and much more. This group meets at 10:30 am on Sundays for about 25 minutes.

Both groups meet in the basement in the room across from Mr. Bill’s Children’s Church room.

Contact Grace Rogansky for more information or to have your child become part of one of these ministries.
