Fifty-year-old Sidney Walker, of White Oak, took the money in
March 2006 from a bank account belonging to First Baptist Church of

Walker will be on probation for five years. Some congregants and
prosecutors had asked that he be sent to jail.
Walker has said he took the money because of personal financial
problems.
