39 Church Street, at the corner of Church and William
Streets, is the site of the First Baptist Church of Moravia.
Begun in 1870, with eleven members, the First Baptist
Church and Society was incorporated in 1871. The
original church building, which still stands, was dedicated
in 1875 and rededicated after an enlargement in 1892.
The property next to the church was purchased in 1959,
and the Christian education building and fellowship hall
was dedicated in the spring of 1999.
Since its inception almost 150 years ago, 31 pastors have
stood in the pulpit. However, one thing has remained the same - the desire to proclaim
the message of salvation and hope through our Lord Jesus
Christ.
