Malmark Handbells
Tabernacle Church was the first church in Indianapolis to own and
use handbells in its worship services. The original set of
Petit & Fritsen
Handbells was purchased in 1964, years before handbells were even
thought of being used for worship. Tabernacle now owns a 5-octave
set of Malmark Handbells and a 3-octave set of Malmark Choirchimes.
The original handbells still hang in the upstairs closet as a constant
reminder of the rich heritage of handbells that has been part of
Tabernacle church for almost 50 years.
