SLATE HILL
OLD SCHOOL BAPTIST CHURCH

MAKE AN IMPACT



Welcome! Built in 1792, Slate Hill Old School Baptist Church is the oldest
extant church in the area.  It is also unique in that it never received modern
upgrades like electricity or plumbing.  The last major change to the building
was in 1828 when the steeple tower was added!

Up until the 1930's, church members were buried in a small cemetery behind the
church.  Since then,  local community members, descendants of the church's
founders, and local organizations have recognized the church's historic value
and helped care for this building and site.
