Our little church had a bell very similar to thus one. The oldest man of our congregation would ring the bell. On special occasions or anything going on at church that was special, he would choose a child to ring the bell with him. Kids loved it. We all did. When he passed, we all rang that bell because he certainly had earned his wings.
hasnt bells became things of the past. masses are scheduled and mass hearers know the time they just come without being called by the ringing of the bells.
Tradition. I don’t know what else to say except it’s a beautiful tradition. Plus imagine someone who wants to go to mass on the highway and then hears the bells and sees the church and realizes he can go. It works bro, maybe less so than it did in the past because of how scheduled everything is but it still works. Plus Tradition
