The church's Facebook presence

The church Website formerly opened with a photo of the building, but is now empty.  The archived version of that page does have a church photo.  A former history page had a small photo of three of the bells, showing the pusher solenoids which move the original (quarter-turned) clappers.  Another small photo appeared to show part of the original mechanical action (now unused).  The tenor bell (on top of the chime frame) may still be swingable.  Unfortunately the archived versions of that page are missing their photos.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Meneely (Troy) bellfoundry.
