MOSES LAKE Immanuel Lutheran Church’s bell will ring out again Sunday.
The bell has been out of commission for several years, said Pastor Walter Klockers. After extensive repairs, it’s ready to peal again. Immanuel Lutheran is unusual in having an actual physical bell, Klockers said; most churches these days either use electronic carillons or forgo the tradition altogether.
“I was surprised at the size of it,” Klockers said. “Thirty-six inches across and 700 pounds is quite a thing.”
THE DALLES — Zion Lutheran Church in The Dalles will present its fourth annual 8-Hour Organ Hymn Marathon beginning at noon on Sunday, Oct. 29 (Reformation Sunday).
