A year ago today, my hometown´s Catholic Parish had to bid farewell to St.Jakobus Church - after a final mass, the church was secularized and is awaiting renovation and modification to become a Caritas center - we closed the church on it´s patronacy feast day.

For the final mass, the bells of St.Jakobus were rung manually - the 2 older bells were once rung by ropes, but this had discontinued a long time ago & the two newer bells were never rung by ropes on a regular basis. As the pastor agreed, I installed ropes for ringing for the final mass, some members of the local congregation had spontanously offered to join me in ringing, so we had enough ringers for all 4 bells.

We rang quite a lot :
- First call to mass (30 minutes in advance)
- Second call to mass (15 minutes before, all 4 bells)
- Ringing of Paulusglocke for the consecration
- Ringing at the last hymn (all 4 bells)
- Solo of the largest bell for the rite of secularization of the Church

My appreciation for all who made this possible :)

The bells were made by Feldmann & Marschel (Münster) and Petit & Edelbrock (Gescher)

Back in 2023, we made a bell for a chapel project in Switzerland 🙂

My native parish church (St.Vincentius Dinslaken,Germany) ringing after first communion mass.These two bells were home in Christ Church Dinslaken , until it's demolition in 2007.

Meine Heimatpfarrkirche (St. Vincentius in Dinslaken) läutet nach der Erstkommunionmesse. Diese beiden Glocken waren in der Christuskirche in Dinslaken beheimatet, bis zu deren Abriss im Jahr 2007.
