🐄❤️ Steer Donation Blesses Local Community! 🙌🍽️
In an incredible act of faith and generosity, the St. Mary’s Redbank Church has donated a 4-H steer - affectionately named “Walter” - to bless our local community! 🐮🙏 Raised by Bailey (Snyder) Rankin and purchased at the Clarion County Fair 4-H Auction, Walter’s meat will be distributed to the New Bethlehem First Fellowship Church, New Salem Pierce Church, Oak Ridge Community Church, Redbank Valley Food Pantry, Madison Township Food Pantry, and the “Just for Jesus” Homeless Shelter in Brockway which serves this area. 🏘️🍖
👏 Special thanks to the Snyder family, 11 Oaks Farms, Shuster family, Tim Burkett, and all who made this mission possible! This is what happens when faith, agriculture, and compassion come together to serve others in Jesus’ name. 💒🌾💕

Wow! What a blessing!
First fellowship church thanks you for contributing to our church. We are so blessed.
🌺 Mahalo for an Amazing Hawaiian Sunday! 🌺
PHOTOS/VIDEO: A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for Hawaiian Sunday at New Bethlehem First Fellowship Church! Inspired by Pastor Don Jeffers and his signature Hawaiian shirt style, today’s service was filled with joy, worship, and aloha spirit!
Pastor Don’s message, “God’s Biggest ‘Don’t’” from Psalm 37:1–7, reminded us of three powerful truths:
1. Don’t fret over evildoers - God is in control.
2. Trust in the Lord and do good - He sees your faithfulness.
3. Be still and wait patiently - God’s timing is perfect.
A special thank you to Debbie, Sue, Galen, and Darrell for blessing us with beautiful special music today!

🎡 Faith, Fun & Fellowship at the Fair! 🙌🎠
Members of New Bethlehem First Fellowship Church were spotted spreading the love and light of Christ at this past week’s Clarion County Fair! 💛 Whether enjoying rides 🎢, cheering on the 4-H kids 🐄🐖, or sharing smiles with family and friends, our church family was out in full force — being a light in the community! 🌟
We’re so blessed to have events like the Clarion County Fair and the incredible 4-H youth who remind us what community, hard work, and faith look like. 💚
📖 “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” – Matthew 5:16

🙌 Thank You for Worshiping With Us! 🙌
We’re so grateful for everyone who joined us this morning at New Bethlehem First Fellowship Church! A special thank you to Guest Pastor John Phillips for delivering a powerful message titled “Prophet, Go Home!” from Amos 7:7–17. 📖
Here are 3 key lessons from today’s scripture:
1️⃣ God’s standard is firm—He measures hearts with His plumb line.
2️⃣ Obedience may be unpopular, but it is always right.
3️⃣ God calls us to speak truth, even when it’s uncomfortable.
📍Join us Sundays at 11 AM at 234 Penn St.
