First Baptist Church of Waverly, NY
Making Christ Known in the Twin Tiers and the World
The First Baptist Church of Waverly, NY

The First Baptist Church is a great place to visit even if you are passing through. Located on a major highway connecting New York City and the East Coast with Niagara Falls and Canada, it is only a half an hour away from Corning Glass Museum and the Finger Lakes. The church is in the region known as "The Valley" where the Chemung and Susquehanna Rivers join. The New York/Pennsylvania border bisects the Valley with Waverly being in New York while the three adjacent communities (Athens, Sayre and South Waverly) are in Pennsylvania. The church is also in the heart of the Twin Tiers which offers some of the best hunting and fishing in the Northeast.
