First Cornwallis Baptist Church welcomes you!
Welcome to First Cornwallis Baptist, a community of Faith, Hope and Love, located in the beautiful Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. The Church building is located in Upper Canard about halfway between Kentville and Canning, about 6.5 km from each. We are a small church community (about sixty on Sunday mornings) with a big heart, seeking to impact our communities with the love of Christ.
The congregation is a wonderful mixture of people from every generation - children and youth to middle age and seniors. Although we are Baptist in our affiliation, all people are warmly welcomed to join us as we seek to follow Christ's leading in our life.For the most current NEWS and UPDATES concerning events at the church and church life, please see our new section UPDATES & NEWS - in the menu at the top.

Re-Opening First Cornwallis Baptist Church
The Deacons Board is delighted to announce that First Cornwallis will be opening its doors to the public for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic started on October 11, 2020; Thanksgiving Sunday.

To help you prepare and ease your worries about what is coming, the Deacons Board, in consultation with the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada and Nova Scotia Public Health, has prepared a COVID-19 Prevention Plan that will help us to worship together safely as we re-open.
Below is a quick summary of what you can expect:
We hope that this helps you to understand what changes we have made to ensure that everyone worshipping with us is kept safe during the COVID-19 pandemic.
