With the help of The Beach Haven Fire Department, The Rt Rev'd George E. Councell went aloft Sunday afternoon, 11 July 2010, to bless the new steeple and carillon at Holy Innocents' in Beach Haven, NJ.

During an afternoon visitation, Bishop Councell boarded the aerial platform of Beach Haven's largest fire truck, and was lifted 60' into the air, placing him at the top of the parish's new steeple. Using the public address system of the fire truck, Bishop Councell led the parish in blessing the steeple, and The Cranmer Carillon. The bells peeled as soon as the blessing was concluded, and the Bishop descended to the ground. Once on the ground, Bishop Councell presided at a visitation Liturgy where he preached, and re-affirmed the Baptismal vows of a member of the parish.

On his way aloft, Bishop Councell was heard to say: "This is a crazy Church!”
