Examples of where the sanctus bell is hung include a bellcote, a chancel roof, a belfry, or window. The bell was rung to alert people outside and inside the church that the main portion of the Mass was beginning. At High Masses, the great church bell was rung instead of the sanctus bell. In modern services, the small altar bells are instead typically rung at the Sanctus portion of the Mass. campanas de iglesia campaneta de sanctus 2026-03-30 20:35:48
