Old Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church and Cemetery was founded in 1844 for both white and black members. Several founders were from the Cone family. The church is located on Highway 80 near Brooklet and Stilson in Bulloch County, Georgia.

Shortly after its founding a rift developed, and Fellowship Primitive Baptist Church split off into a new church. Unlike missionary Baptist churches, primitive Baptist churches rejected both the missionary and Sunday school movements.

Old Fellowship existed for both white and black members, and in 1867 the membership was almost equally divided between whites and blacks. With segregation, in 1883 black members created their own church, nearby Friendship Baptist Church.
