In 1955, Westwood Lutheran Church embarked on a new chapter in its history. It wasn’t just a relocation; it was a leap of faith. Westwood Lutheran Church outgrew its humble abode on 6719 Cedar Lake Road. The congregation, brimming with new members and bursting at the seams, sought a larger space to house its growing family. They found their answer a bit further west, at 9001 Cedar Lake Road. This wasn’t just a patch of land; it was a canvas for their dreams. Westwood Lutheran Church purchased a sprawling 20-acre site. This sanctuary wasn’t built in a day, instead it unfolded in stages. The first structure to grace the land was an education wing, boasting 20 classrooms, a testament to the church’s commitment to nurturing young minds. The gymnasium, in a charming display of adaptability, served as the temporary sanctuary. Then, in 1963, the vision fully materialized with the construction of a dedicated $386,500 sanctuary. By October 1963, Westwood Lutheran Church stood as a beacon of faith, boasting a congregation of 3,800 strong. And the growth didn’t stop there. Between 1985 and 1988, the church underwent another transformation, adding a $1.6 million expansion.
