ISHPEMING -- We've all seen the Salvation Army bell ringers outside businesses, but Monday night, the Ishpeming Pamida store hosted some very special bell ringers.

Members of Wesley United Methodist Church held a bell ringing choir at the store to help raise money for the Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign.
    
The choir consists of 18 members who ring bells with specific notes to create a variety of Christmas songs.

"It gives something unique and personal and touching and special for people that like the music and something different that people may notice and catch them," said Salvation Army Captain Chris Marques.

The bell choir performs for the Salvation annually.
