On July 1, 1968, the Cedarholms purchased the property at 745 West Main Street in Watertown, Wisconsin. And a few weeks later, they opened the doors to Maranatha Baptist Bible College. Although that first miracle year—with over 200 students, faculty, and stuff—is unique—it’s not the only time Maranatha has experienced the Lord’s grace, goodness, and mercy.
