Saint Paul Missionary Baptist Church, Tift County

A white church building with a steeple, set against a clear blue sky and surrounded by trees. The entrance features a set of stairs and a ramp, with a small grassy area in front.

This church is located near the Brighton community. I haven’t been able to locate any history, but this is obviously a newer structure. The earliest burial I found in the adjacent cemetery was 1908. The Tabor brothers, who died in the tragic Tift County bus crash of 1959, are also interred here.
