We invite anyone – visitor or member – to find a place among us in the New Philly Bells of Joy Ministry.  Ringing bells is more than just “ringing bells”; it’s about glorifying God, building friendships with one another and ministering to the hearts of all who listen.  Openings now for those with some musical experience, and we’re hopeful to start an adult beginning ringing ensemble – no experience required!  Serve God, find fellowship and experience God’s amazing gift of music.  For more information contact Director Terri Queen at taqueen@yadtel.net or 336 998-4160.  Come find your place among us.  “All the believers were one in heart and mind.” Acts 4:32
