** Some of the highlights of the Theocratic History Tour: See the former locations of the first headquarters offices of the Bible Students in Allegheny and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. See Carnegie Hall, in Allegheny, where in 1903 Charles Taze Russell engaged in public debates with Dr. E. L. Eaton. Using only the Bible, Brother Russell successfully defended the Bible’s teaching on the true condition of the dead as well as other Bible teachings. We will also visit two buildings that served as the meeting places for the Allegheny Congregation, the very first congregation in the United States. You will see all the above and much more. The tour will no doubt convince you that Jehovah God used Brother Russell and his associates (starting in the 1870’s) to bring spiritual light to deserving mankind. Your tour guide will be Brother Timothy E. Martin who served for many years at Brooklyn Bethel and now serves as a Special Pioneer in San Diego and is the official designer and tour guide for the BCT Bible Lands Tours (especially those having to do with Israel, Turkey, Egypt). Beginning in the 1870s many of the activities of C. T. Russell and his associates took place in Pittsburgh and Allegheny City. Interestingly, Allegheny City (1788–1907) was a separate Pennsylvania city located on the north side of the of the Allegheny and Ohio rivers, across from downtown Pittsburgh. The city of Pittsburgh features 151 high-rise buildings, 446 bridges, and two inclined railways. The city is known colloquially as “The City of Bridges” and “The Steel City” for its many bridges and former steel manufacturing operations.
The Sight-Seeing Part Of The Tour In Pittsburgh Will Include: A visit to Mount Washington. Mount Washington is known for its steep hill overlooking the breathtaking Pittsburgh skyline, which was rated the second most beautiful vista in America by USA Weekend (and the best urban vista.) (Optional) A ride on The Duquesne Incline. This ride will take you back in time on a century-old cable car and see the best views of downtown Pittsburgh while riding on one of the oldest remaining inclines in the United States.
Self-Guided Exhibits You Can Tour At Warwick
This exhibit features rare Bibles and highlights how God’s name has been preserved in the Scriptures despite efforts to remove it. The exhibit also includes a rotational gallery, which features additional rare Bibles and Bible-related artifacts.
This exhibit provides a visual history of the spiritual heritage of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Artifacts, graphics, and first-person accounts show how Jehovah has progressively guided, taught, and organized his people to do his will.
This interactive exhibit explains the work of the Governing Body committees and how they help Jehovah’s Witnesses to follow the Scriptural directives to meet together, to make disciples, to take in spiritual food, and to show love toward one another.

Overview
New York City’s five boroughs are home to some of the world’s most recognizable and cherished landmarks and attractions. From Times Square and Central Park to the Empire State Building and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the island of Manhattan packs more legendary icons into one compact area than any other place on Earth. With so much to see and do, a trip to NYC may seem a little overwhelming. It’s impossible to see everything, regardless of your staying power, so instead, try to soak in the sheer amount of culture, restaurants, exhibitions, and people here, and you’ll be acting like a jaded New Yorker in no time.
With Bethel Coach Tours, visit such sites as the Empire State Building, Broadway and Times Square, Ground Zero and of course, Warwick, the Patterson Educational Center in Patterson, NY and Watchtower Farms! Not to be missed is <a href="http://museumbibletours.com/new-york/tour/metropolitan-museum-art-he-causes-to-become/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a very special Bible tour</a> conducted for you by <a href="http://museumbibletours.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Museum Bible Tours (MBT)</a> at the <a href="http://museumbibletours.com/new-york/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Metropolitan Museum of Art</a>. The local Tour MBT Guides do a very professional presentation; one that’s unforgettable, encouraging and faith-strengthening! A special treat on this NY and Canada Bethel trip with Sunday in Manhattan is that you can enjoy a Broadway play at discounted Sunday afternoon matinee prices. Your BCT Tour guide will assist you in getting the best price possible for the play of you choice at the TKTS Booth in Times Square. <a title="Shows Currently Available TKTS Booth NYC" href="http://www.tdf.org/TKTSBoards.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Click here for plays currently available</a> (no guarantee the list of shows will be the same on the Sunday you actually purchase your tickets).
Fortunately, the fun doesn’t stop there! First, all that you have seen spread out between the office, shipping, and factory complexes at the U.S. Bethels you will now see all together in one beautiful spot – The Canadian Bethel Branch, in Georgetown, Canada! You’ll also get to take in the sites and sounds of the magnificent Niagara Falls from the Canadian side! The Niagara Falls are not to be missed! Seldom will you ever get to see such awe-inspiring site (and sound)!
