Shiloh Baptist Church

On October 21, 1881, 15 residents of several neighboring communities in this part of Limestone County met to organize a Baptist church. The Rev. G. L. Jennings served as first pastor. For 14 years, the congregation met for worship in the Shiloh schoolhouse and participated in a Union Sunday School with the local Methodist church. In January 1896, the members of Shiloh Baptist Church worshiped for the first time in their own sanctuary. The congregation completed a new building in 1927 to replace the original. For more than 100 years, Shiloh Baptist Church has shared in the religious and cultural heritage of this rural area. (2001).
