Or videos of ensembles performing in a worship service - introit, anthem, offertory, prelude, postlude, with vocal choir, organ, other instrumentalists or congregational singing. Or whether that is historical information about the use of handbells by churches over the centuries, or ideas for incorporating their use today.

It was good to be ringing for worship this Palm Sunday. We rang Hosanna in the Highest by Hal Hopson as the introit with the Jordanhill church choir. As the offering was brought forward we rang Adoro Te. Devote arr Larry Sue (ASCAP)
