| HANDBELLS PROGRAM |
|
Prince of Peace is known as the "church of the bells." We
are blessed with the tradition and the instruments making possible the pealing of handbells every Sunday.
Ringers play in graded ensembles with new groups forming as interest requires.
Our Handbells program was recently featured in a news article.

Bell Sunday will be celebrated at Prince of Peace during the 10am worship service on June 1st. The Alchemy Handbell Ensemble
will be performing on the same day in a Spring Concert at 5pm. For details, see the
Performance and Concert Schedules.
