This past weekend, John Russell retired after 40 years as senior minister of Lakeside Christian Church (Lakeside Park, KY).
“While the vast majority of Lakeside Christian Church’s 100-member congregation supported hiring 23-year-old John Russell as its senior minister [in 1970], a few had reservations because of his age,”ย said an article in the Cincinnati Enquirer. “”They took a chance on me and decided that I’d grow and they’d grow with me,””ย Russell said.
Jamie Snyder will serve as the church”s new minister.
