Our bells are on their way! Created in honor of one of our most famous pastors, the bells will be restored to their perch in The America Tower at the end of the year.

Samuel Francis Smith wrote the hymn "America" in 1831, an accomplishment that made him one of Newton's most famous residents in his lifetime. In 1842 he accepted the post as First Baptist Church in Newton's pastor. The tower was named in his honor -- and you can see the now-faint inscription celebrating him on the largest of the bells. The bells, created in an 1842-forge in what is now Watervliet, NY, will be refurbished in Ohio.
