Founded by Scott J. Davis, this congregation held services on the 2nd floor of the PNC Bank Building on Center Square in Nazareth. Services were held here until 2005
In October of 2004 Pastor Scott Davis begins preaching to both Slate Belt Church & Nazareth Baptist Church. From October until May the two congregations got to know one another through several combined services, shared meals, and times of fellowship.
In March 2005 both congregations vote to unify under the leadership of pastor Scott Davis. After much prayer, officers meetings, and congregational meetings the two churches became one.
