Summer 2026
Dear Members and Friends of SLBC,
Dear Members and Friends of SLBC,
I trust that this summer will bring a time of rest and relaxation after a long winter and a cold spring. Perhaps the summer will allow you to invest in some extended Bible study, or reading on Christian topics that you did not have time to do during the holidays and the added work of snow removal and sprucing-up the yard. Either way, as you rest and relax, look for Jesus to be there with you. Spend some extra time in prayer. After all, Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light" (Matthew 11:28-30).
As we all return to the great outdoors, let's make it our aim to love people around us where they are at, and as we build bonds of friendship and trust, share the hope we have in Jesus. Let us also find ways to make inroads into our community--I believe South Levant Baptist Church is one of the best kept secrets in the area! Where else can people connect with a close-knit, country church, as well as traditional ministry methods and worship? Many today seek a larger church, with a worship team and a plethora of choices for various ministries. However, we unashamedly offer what God enables us as well as value each and every person that God allows us to minister to at their point of need. This is a great privilege, and one that we should not take for granted. No one is just a face in the crowd at SLBC. Instead, they are loved, valued, supported and given the attention that a close-knit congregation allows.

Take the time to reach out to people that are not already part of a local church, or are new to the area and are looking for a new church home.
