Earle Trent Baptist Assembly, a Christian retreat center owned and operated by the Colbert Lauderdale Baptist Association, celebrated its 50th anniversary during the association’s annual meeting Oct. 20.
Alabaster’s Westwood Baptist Church and Westwood en Español congregations see themselves as partners in a mission to reach their community, something that was illustrated by their joint baptisms in the creek in Montevallo this year.
“It’s a church with a heart to reach Russellville and the world with the gospel, and they allowed me to be their pastor along for this journey,” said pastor Wade Wallace, who has served at Calvary Baptist Church in Russellville 20 years.
