Ringing of the bell in Murphy, TX. It’s been a little more than a year since Christmas Eve 2009 when the congregation of First Baptist Church of Murphy was able to return to their newly located and remodeled church building. Today marks the first day of the ringing of the bell since they moved off the original location at the corner of FM544 and Murphy Rd.
The old bell tower was torn down and the iron bell was stored away during construction of the new site. The new bell tower has been under construction over the past couple of months and, as you can see from the photo, still remains to be completed. But that didn’t stop the children from ringing the bell to let local residents know that it was time for Sunday Worship in the city of Murphy.

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Psalm 150:6
