Grady Sizemore, the Indians‘ center fielder, holds the current streak for consecutive starts in baseball with 360. That means that sometime in 2022, if all goes well, he’ll break Cal Ripken’s streak of 2632 consecutive starts. Cal did it all with one team over a span of about 20 years. I’m hoping Grady makes it there, all with one team as well.
What would our churches look like if their workers gave 20+ years to a single church? We’ve been blessed with Sue for that long. And Ruth, who recently retired. Ruth gave over 12,500 days to serving the Lord at First Trinity. In case you missed it, we’ve posted the audio from the end of the service where we specifically celebrate Ruth’s ministry among us. We’re thankful for Ruth’s past ministry and look forward to how God will continue using her in this new chapter of ministry!
