The most recent was early Tuesday morning at Faith Builders Christian Center on Wade Stedman Road. The fire damaged the church, melting the vinyl siding of one end of the building.
Williams and Starling are charged with multiple counts of burning personal property and the burning of a church.
Bond was set at $12,000.
