Waverly C&MA Church in Waverly, New York, held its 100th anniversary service on Sunday, October 7, 2007.
Since its founding, the church has reached out to the community through various means, including radio broadcasts and transporting neighborhood children to Sunday school. Waverly has also partnered with area congregations to meet practical needs in the community.
“By working together with other churches and agencies, we have been able to meet many more needs than any single church,” said Waverly’s pastor, Rev. Larry Day.
Church members additionally have been coaching and mentoring youngsters who responded to a recebt Franklin Graham children’s crusade. Adults in the church have been assigned to follow up on these children and are meeting with them weekly.
