God’s Faithful Provision at Work

We invite you to read the story of Sonlight Baptist Church in Colbert, GA. Our church history is a story of God’s faithful provision to this Independent Baptist congregation in Oglethorpe County. We begin our story, like the people of Israel wandering through the desert, with a tent.

The Early Years: Tent to Building

Sonlight Baptist Church began on September 5, 1965 under a tent in the yard of Brother Claude Sorrow. Twenty-one people became the church’s founding members. Brother James Brock served as mediator. Rev. Ernest Palmer was called as Pastor. The church then moved into the old Coile’s Grove church building for the winter. In the spring of 1966, 10 acres of land were purchased and the auditorium with two small wings extending off each side was built. The church was later bricked and the wings expanded to their present size.

A Small But Growing Christian Community


We are a small but growing Church. We are small enough to feel like a large family. At the same time, we are large enough to offer ministries for every age group. You will find us a friendly church that welcomes every visitor. We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. At Sonlight Baptist Church, you will find lots of good singing, a choir, and great preaching from God’s Word.
