In 1942 the old structure and a new two-story frame was erected at 1090 Buford Street. In 1952, additional church property was acquired, and in April, 1958, Starlight dedicated its renovated brick -veneer sanctuary. The church added an educational unit in 1965 and in 1983, the church dedicated a new sanctuary as the last phase of its building program. Today the Starlight Baptist Church represents a vital part of the community and religious growth within our city.
