Bells are among the most ancient of musical instruments, and have been used in worship since the some of the earliest documentable times. Gilbert First United Methodist has a long tradition of bell choirs. Our ensemble generally rings with 9-10 bell ringers (playing Schulmerich Bells, as well as Suzuki Tone Chimes. The Wesleyan Bells welcomes capable ringers of high school age and above.
The Wesleyan Bells rehearse Wednesdays from 5:30pm - 6:30pm in the bell room (with summers off). Nursery/child care is available for both Wednesday rehearsals and Sunday morning worship services.
