Fwd: [c-r] Archbishops ask cathedrals and churches to toll bells for Notre Dame

[Joshua Burson <joshburson09 gmail com>]

OK, let's make this happen!  I can make it in (just) before 6 tomorrow, but if anyone else is interested in going in to chime a bell earlier, I will be glad to yield you the honor!

Joshua,  Any time before six would be fine. I wouldn’t want it past six because that’s getting pretty close to the Maundy Thursday mass. I think doing it is a fine idea, by the way. Fr. Welch

Dear Jim,

The archbishops in England have asked churches there to toll bells (ideally for 7 minutes) at some point tomorrow, as a mark of solidarity following the devastating fire at Notre Dame de Paris.  Would it be possible for one of us to do that at the Church of the Advent at some point tomorrow, as well?  One obvious possibility would be before the Maundy service (so around 6), in which case I could theoretically do it; but failing that, one of my colleagues might be able to undertake it earlier in the day.

Thank you!  And apologies for the short notice, under which circumstances we will quite understand if it turns out that this won't be possible.  In any case, we all wish you all the best in this Easter season.
