12 Small Pennsylvania Towns Where Neighbors Still Look Out For One Another

In 1856, a local woman hurried to the scene of a terrible train crash near her Pennsylvania home. She spent hours caring for the injured, and people never forgot what she did.

Agricultural exhibitions eventually spread throughout Pennsylvania, and the first statewide Farm Show was held in Harrisburg in 1917. The event was once known as the Pennsylvania Corn, Fruit, Vegetable, Dairy Products, and Wool Show.

This Pennsylvania Cathedral Could Quite Easily Pass for a Church in Medieval Europe

A chest beneath one altar holds 84 relics of saints and martyrs, including Saint Patrick. That detail alone made me stop scrolling. Construction began in 1875, and the cathedral was dedicated in 1893. The bishop behind it refused to build unless the money was already in hand, so the walls rose slowly, stone by red stone.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Pulpit: Local Pastor Emerges as Stand-Up Comedian

He’s a rarity, that’s for sure. A guy who’s equally at ease while preaching from the Bible in a church or delivering a punch line at a comedy club. That’s right, State College’s Jonathan Weibel is both an ordained pastor and a professional stand-up comedian. Appropriately enough, he jokes about his curious combination of professions. “I fly a lot,” says the clergy comic, “and one of the first things someone says to you on a plane is, ‘What do you do for a living?’ If I want to talk to them, I tell them I’m a stand-up comedian. And if I’m tired and don’t want to talk to them, I’ll tell them I’m a Baptist evangelist.” Weibel has served in Christian ministry for nearly 40 years.
