VISITORS & TRAVEL GUIDE
Sculptor Dale Rogers' The Big Dog Show is coming to New Bethlehem during the Peanut Butter Festival, the first in PA!
It is an art and charity event. 12 8'x10' steel American dogs will be placed in the open area in front of New Bethlehem Town Center and will be decorated by our Redbank Valley Days of Giving charities and 2 by sponsors. Visitors can vote on their favorites and win a prize. Charities will have information tables and donation jars in the New Bethlehem Town Center hallways where you can learn more about each of the charities. There will also be prizes, raffles, t-shirts, art contests, photo opportunities, an indoor art show and more. T-shirt sponsors are welcomed. Message or call 724-664-4754 for more information.
The Show is brought here by The Gallery at New Bethlehem Town Center, Redbank Renaissance and the Redbank Valley Trails Association and possibly other sponsors. We're currently looking for match fund sponsors to add a percentage to amounts donated to charities.
The Show has appeared in 22 states since 2009 raising over $500,000 for local charities. Come see the show, take photos and support your local charities. Thanks for your support!

It’s happening again! Mark your calendars! Save your dates! Prepare for Trailside Takeout!
New menu as well and we will have a new ordering process that hopefully won’t clog up the works like last time. With every attempt there should always be improvement. With any failure there is always a lesson.

🙏 Are You Saved—or Just Sitting in a Pew? 🪑✝️
What truly saves us isn’t church attendance, good deeds, or tradition—it’s a transformed heart through Jesus Christ! 💖
📖 Romans 10:9 (NIV) reminds us:
“If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
In his latest message, Rev. Dr. Gordon V. Barrows unpacks the 3 C’s of Salvation:
🔹 Conviction – Feeling the weight of sin
🔹 Confession – Declaring Jesus as Lord
🔹 Conversion – Living a changed life
Don’t just warm a pew—ignite your faith! 🔥💬
Jesus is calling… are you ready to respond? 🙌
#SavedNotSitting #FaithInAction #JesusIsLord #NBFFC #Ministry #NewBethlehem #RedbankValley #GospelTruth #ChurchLife #ChristianLiving #TransformationThroughChrist

Rev. Dr. Gordon V. Barrows is a licensed pastor and ordained minister who holds a Ph.D. equivalent Doctorate of Education (Ed.D.) in Theology/Divinity.
