CELEBRATION: New Bethel Baptist Church, 1507 Hillman St., Youngstown, dedicated its new $3.5 million sanctuary, which was built on the church's former parking lot. To expand, the church bought some of the run-down homes in the area for parking space. The Rev. Kenneth L. Simon, speaking to the congregation Sunday, said the church provides hope to the community from the empowering Gospels.
