History of Elam Egypt Baptist Church
Elim Baptist Church was constituted in the summer of 1870, in front of and to the left of the residence of C.F. Foy, in a grove of young oaks, about two miles north of Egypt. A man of great influence and social leader in the community brought about a split in the church at Oliver (Little Ogeechee Baptist) over the use of an organ in their song services. Dr. A. B. Lanier organized Elim Baptist Church because of this issue. He and others who favored the use of an instrument left the Little Ogeechee Baptist Church and founded Elim Baptist Church. [more]

Uniform and Clothing Giveaway
Saturday, Jan 03, 2026
Guyton – at the City Gym
Because of a very generous donation of school uniform pieces as well as other pieces of children’s clothing, the Missions Committee is organizing a Uniform and Clothing Giveaway to benefit Effingham County children. There will be many ways that church members will be able to help that day. More details to come. The Committee will also be putting hygiene bags together containing bars of soap and toothpaste. If you would like to contribute toward that effort, a box will be placed in the back of the church. If you would like to contribute monetarily instead, see Tina Caine or Brenda Barrow. Deadline to contribute items or money will be December 21 so that there will be ample time to assemble the bags. Help us be the hands and feet of Jesus for our community!
