CTK’s Founder’s Day Celebration began with a Gala Dance on Good Friday, July 18th, at Discovery World, a Five-star dining event comprised of scrumptious food, sincere fellowship & friendship, and sensational speakers and songs. There were no comedians in sight, but the laughter of memories shared from other pulpit ministers about Pastor John Wesley McVicker, Sr., and First Lady Marilynn made the monologues worthwhile and entertaining. Listeners could hear the genuine camaraderie from their recollection of events.

Pastor John Wesley McVicker, Sr.. Remembers
“Before I share these few words with you, I want to thank these Pastors who made a shift in their schedule, this is Sunday morning. Thank you so much. We’ve known each other for 40, 30, 25, 15 years. Most of us were not preachers when our paths first crossed, but God so ordained it that He would use us as preachers and pastors, and our friendship has sustained all these years.”
There are a number of CTK members who relocated to other cities and returned to sit in a pew, sang in the choir, spoke on camera, or in front of the congregation.
“We had a grand time on Friday night. It was an amazing event celebrating 40 years of this ministry. Those who worked and attended. We had a sold-out banquet and a waiting list to come to the Gala that is beyond words.”
Pastor McVicker acknowledged his family, children, and grandchildren, who are from out of town. His son, John Wesley McVicker, Jr., performed on the drums at four years old. “He stood up and leaned back on the seat, but he could keep time. He played in grade school, middle school, and high school. His job was being the drummer for all the choirs.”
Let me begin by thanking Marilynn for making tremendous sacrifices as my partner in ministry.
