Some Protestant Churches ring church bells during the congregational recitation of the Lord's Prayer, after the sermon, in order to alert those who are unable to be present to "unite themselves in spirit with the congregation."[REF][REF] .
In many historic Christian Churches, church bells are also rung on All Hallows' Eve,[REF] as well as during the processions of Candlemas and Palm Sunday;[REF] the only time of the Christian Year when church bells are not rung include Maundy Thursday through the Easter Vigil [REF].
