Bells. Found.

Posted on May 27, 2012July 8, 2024 by Jo

 

We worshipped this morning in a Romanesque style church that was designed by a Russian; built in a Chinese city under Japanese occupation; and has a bell that was cast in Germany in 1883.

How did a bell made in 1883 in Germany end up in a church in China in 1938?

How did this bell survive the Cultural Revolution so that it is still in use today?

We learned the answer to one of those questions this weekend. The other question is another mystery that needs solving.

Stay tuned for stories…..
