Shiloah Baptist Church - Jenkins, MO - Baptist Churches on Waymarking.com

Shiloah is the less usual spelling of the Hebrew word (more typically rendered in English as Shiloh) meaning Place of Peace. This church is affiliated with the Barry County Southern Baptist Association. In the booklet entitled 100 years of the Barry County [Southern] Baptist Association (1883-1983) by Pauline Cox, there is no mention of Shiloah Baptist Church prior to 1909, except that 4 churches (not named) had asked to be admitted into the association (bottom of page 8), and all 4 were admitted. Perhaps Shiloah was one of the 4, since it then shows up in the table on page 9 for 1909.

The church is about 2.2 miles southwest of the few houses and old store fronts that remain of the town of Jenkins. This area is served by the Aurora, MO post office, which is about 14 miles north, in Lawrence County, but is the nearest town with a post office (and thus zip code)! The address for the church may be either Aurora or Jenkins, as long as the correct zip code for Aurora is used.
