To produce biblically based production to assist in emphasizing the teachings of the ministerial staff of WBC and to work as a support system of other ministries at Westside Baptist Church and the surrounding community.

Westside Baptist Church conducts two drama productions each year. These productions mainly occur during holiday seasons including Resurrection and Christmas. This ministry includes actors, set designers, lighting/sound, props, and writers. People of all ages, professions, shapes, and sizes are encouraged to participate in this ministry. God has a calling/purpose for all of us, and it is always a blessing when you venture out to find that purpose. This ministry may be the right one for you. If you want to be behind the scenes or in front of the congregation, this could be the best fit for you.
