Bringing the love of Christ to
Sand Lake
and surrounding communities.
1 John 4:7 KJV
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God;
and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
Welcome!
Sand Lake Baptist Church was built in 1805 as the first union meeting house established for Protestant worship. In addition, it is Sand Lake's oldest public building. We are proud to say that Sand Lake Baptist Church played an important role in freeing slaves as a member of the Underground Railroad.
Today, we continue to serve Sand Lake and our surrounding communities in various ways, all while maintaining worship through God’s inerrant word in the King James Bible as an Independent Baptist Church.
