Mark writes. On Saturday night (October 18th) the Westgate Baptist Church of Lancaster celebrated their 50th anniversary. Richard Schramm served as MC, throughout the celebration that included a delicious meal, testimonies from pastoral leaders, great music, a slide presentation and more. Rev Robert Zimmerman, the current minister offered a powerful visionary challenge. It was an awesome night.

It was great seeing so many dear friends at the Westgate Anniversary Celebration. Many clergy couples were present to join in the festivities.

On Sunday I worshipped at the Westgate Baptist Church as they celebrated their 50th Anniversary. It was a great day with many participating in morning worship include an inspirational anthem and a very good Children's message.  Rev. Dr. Bob Bouder delivered a powerful message encouraging the entire congregation to start kissing frogs.  Jesus touched a leper and healed him, thus kissing a frog and transforming his life.  Pastor Bob told the congregation the mission and ministry of the church is to kiss frogs, introducing them to Jesus who can still transform lives.
