PASTOR AND CHURCH CELEBRATE 45TH ANNIVERSARY The Bloomsburg Baptist Church, 2405 Old Berwick Rd, Bloomsburg, celebrated its 45th anniversary on July 1. Pastor Craig D. Laidacker, who has been the church’s pastor since its beginning, marked his 45th year in the ministry on that date as well. Special speaker for the anniversary was Pastor Jim Joyner who had preached at the church’s organizational service in 1974. Pastor Laidacker came to know Christ as his personal Savior... in June 1968 at an evangelistic crusade held at the Bloomsburg Fairgrounds. During his years at Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, Pastor Laidacker was praying about where to begin an independent, Bible-believing church. Bloomsburg was not on his list of places, but the Lord led otherwise, and after graduation in May 1973, the first service was held in the pastor’s living room on July 4th. In April of 1974 the congregation of about 25 people moved to the union hall on 366 West Fifth St. In 1988, the congregation of 50 purchased its present building at 2405 Old Berwick Road and did extensive work to the restore the building which was built in 1891. Although the church has changed its location over the years, the message has remained the same: Jesus Christ is God in the flesh and man’s only hope of eternal life. At age 77 Pastor Laidacker is not quite ready to retire. He still preaches three services on Sunday, conducts prayer meeting, leads the song service, and does visitation work, along with some yard and janitorial work. The church’s schedule of services is: 10:00 am Sunday School for adults and children of all ages; 11:00 am morning worship; 7:00 pm Sunday Evening Service; and Wednesday Prayer Meeting 7:00 pm. The church’s website is www.bloomsburgbaptistchurch.net and the phone number is 570-784-5470. See more

Pastor Laidacker is thankful and happy to be serving the Lord! July 24, 2018
