unknown, Brinkley

As there is no identifying sign, I assume this pretty little church has been converted into a home. If so, it's a bit unusual that the cross would remain over the entrance. A parsonage, perhaps?

Update: Please refer to the comment for the church's past and present identification.

First Missionary Baptist, Brinkley

Founded in 1875 as Brinkley's First Baptist. The lancet windows and the back 2/3rds of the church are original to the building, while it's clear the lighter bricks were part of the 1975 remodel.

Here's a closer look at the dividing line. Notice half the brick window surround is part of the addition.

It's always better to misspell on paper than in granite.
