If the church is unwilling to help locally, you could try appealing to their regional leadership (though this is unlikely to work). From there, your next steps fall into 2 boxes:

Management Double-glazing, earplugs, white noise, etc.

Fighting back Rallying sympathetic neighbours sounds as though it’s not an option, so to start with, you should familiarise yourself with any relevant ordinances - if you need professional legal advice, consider bringing your sympathetic neighbour in on it and split costs. Trolling - the Satanic Temple (not the church of Satan as others have recommended) or the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster are your best bet on getting pseudo-legitimacy, and may have intervened in similar situations. Sabotage - cutting cables is cheap and fun - audio, data, power - who knows what cable does what, but trial and error is an option - bonus points for attracting rodents and and outsourcing the job to them. If you want to get creative, a HERF gun may be a viable option. Pamphlet drops to the congregation with something along the lines of “love thy neighbour - with 120db bells at x, y, z times” - don’t do this if you’re making less ethical moves - you’ll paint an obvious target on your back. If you can get access to the audio console, your effective options open right up - but this probably involves breaking and entering, so that’s probably more inadvisable than the rest of my advice.

Does your house vibrate when the bells ring?

• if true, you might sue for potential property damage. That should make them think twice. In this case, soundproofing has little effect.
• if not, you might want to invest in better windows and/or window blinds. Neither should be extremly expensive and you can start by soundproofing the room you sleep in.

Fyi, we lived near a noisy main street. After changing the windows we were surprised how little of the traffic we heard.

Sign up to be a part of the Church of Satan. Get a massive 1000W + speaker and PA system. Blast death metal at them every time they do a service.

Cops come, it’s part of your religious freedom like a minaret or something

I used to live next to an interstate.

These white noise machines are GOLD:

There are several brands, so don’t feel like you need this particular one.

Create any water features you can indoors and/or outside. These create background sound to drown it out.

Thick fabrics on the walls facing the sound can help if you can’t afford to do new windows right now. I believe they also sell window inserts that deafen sound, as I was looking into them at one time.

To your particular issue, since it’s a specific song (maybe?), a repeating catalog of songs, or at least specific frequencies/tones every time, and it’s at specific times, I wonder if you could rig up some sort of noise cancelling device or sound to play at those exact times in your bedroom?

Sue for nuisance.

You probably tried this already but what about ear plugs?

Get a sound meter. Check the laws to se if they are exceeding the sound decibels, then complain to the police and keep asking for higher supervisors and be persistent.

Complain to city council or mayors office if police refuse to enforce the law

I wonder if the previous occupant of the property you’re on was the reason the bell was out of service when you got there… 🤔

Jesus: “love thy neighbor”

The church: I’m just gonna pretend I didn’t see that

If the church doesn’t care, send a letter to the mayor, show up to the town hall meetings or public town hall sessions, make videos about it on social media, sue them for being a noise nuisance, send the newspaper a message and describe your situation to ask for help in exposing the problem so that more people get wind of it, … Basically, air your dirty laundry since the church doesn’t give a fuck about you.

Personal opinion about loud, religious venues: fuck them. I wish more people would sue them for being a noise nuisance. If they want to remind people to show up, send an electronic message or hell, even a carrier pigeon for all I care, just stop making everybody aware of your beliefs. Many people don’t care or believe in the same things as you. These aren’t the 1800s anymore.

Is it legal to ring church bells at 5:30 am? WTF?

Anyways, get some ear plugs.

Does the church have a sprinkler system installed?

And of course it’s a church

Just do as I say, buy don’t do as I do.

The fact that a lot of the neighbours like it means it could sell. You might get lucky with some old people. My grandparents had a clock that chimed every hour. They absolutely loved it even though it went all night.

Short term solution is to invest in the best ear plugs you can.

Isn’t this how fight clubs start? Maybe rent the basement of the church, invite some “friends” not to talk about it?

Seriously though, meditation/mindfulness can help a bit. Practicing incorporating and accepting the constant overstimulation.

Good luck 🍀🤞
