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 over 135 years ago, 30 pastors have
     stood in the pulpit.  Members have come and gone, but
     one thing has remained the same - the desire to proclaim
     the message of salvation and hope through our Lord Jesus
     Christ.
