Reflections off Still Waters: Second Baptist Church History Nell Torone

Step back in time to experience, firsthand, a tiny portion of the past? 1852 Lift the edges of your lengthy gown as you wade into the cool waters of Stoney Brook to be baptized by the legendary Pastor Dwight Ives? 1861 Walk beside Suffield soldiers marching off to war to defend the right of freedom and liberty for all? 1898 Stroll the halls of The Midway Plaisance to experience exotic lands inside the Suffield Town Hall? 1920 Experience the excitement of your first motion picture show sitting in the sanctuary of Second Baptist Church? 1959 Be the first to square dance across the floors of the new Fellowship Hall of Second Baptist Church? Two hundred years of Second Baptist Church history is revealed through significant events in the life of the church, Suffield town history, and across the nation.
