Possibly a drunk pastor or a ghost in the bell tower! If a machine does the ringing then it could possibly need a tune up! lol!
From my understanding all the old church bells are rung by hand; I would have no idea why they're ringing them at 5am.
I used to live in a factory town that was so small that a whistle went off at 5 am to let everyone know it was time to get up, but that was everyday, Monday-Friday. Never heard a church go off at 5 am, unless they worship that early.
Here's everything to do with church bells:

the church in the center of our town is set up to ring on the hour every hour, but the ringing is actually a song (different each time). maybe it has some kind of machine like that?
