                  Silver Creek Baptist Church History

                   
                  Silver Creek Baptist Church was organized on April 14, 1840 out of White
                  Oak Church (now, Mill Spring First). The first church was located at the forks
                  of Silver Creek road and Martin Arledge road. It was relocated to the present
                  property between 1854-1874. The first and second structures were lost to fire.
                  The third was used until 1911. The new lapboard structure was dedicated on
                  August 9, 1914. Homecoming was started on the third Sunday in September,
                  1921 by Vance McGraw and Horace Arledge. Several additions were made
                  for Sunday School space during the 40’s and 50’s. The parsonage was built
                  in 1957. The new brick structure now in use was dedicated October 8, 1972.


                  In celebration of the church’s 150th  Anniversary, a time capsule was sealed
                  on October 7, 1990 to be opened at the 200th  Anniversary in 2040.


                  A Fellowship Building was erected and dedicated in 2000-01.  New carpet
                  was put down and pews reupholstered in 2002. The parking lot was paved
                  and a sound system was added in 2003.


                  In 2004, the church installed awnings connecting church and fellowship
                  building entrance. A TV/DVD player was purchased for the nursery.  In
                  September of 2004, stained glass windows were installed throughout the
                  church in two (2) phases. The Baptistery Scene “COME UNTO ME” is made
                  of hand stained glass with opalescent borders. The remaining windows are
                  opalescent, including the cross which accents the front of the church and is
                  beautiful with lighting on it in the evening hours. A large plaque was installed
                  in the vestibule on April 1, 2005 for windows purchased as memorials and
                  dedications. A window dedication service was held on Sunday, April 17,
                  2005.


                  The church purchased a new Rogers Organ and a Boston Baby Grand
                  piano, designed by Steinway in 2005.


                  In 2007, an inside handicap lift was installed and the Media Center was
                  relocated to the lower level of the church. A new ice maker was installed in
                  the fellowship building.


                  The people at Silver Creek Baptist Church are wonderful, God-fearing,
                  God-loving, mission minded servants. The pastor, Rev. Rob Hefner and his
                  wife, Phyllis, are a blessing to the church and the community.
