May 24 Today in OPC History

On May 24, 1996, three members of the staff of Lake Sherwood OPC in Orlando, Florida, received degrees from nearby Reformed Theological Seminary. Pastor Larry Mininger earned the Doctor of Ministry degree. Soon-to-be Associate Pastor Chad Sadorf -- he would be ordained and installed two days later -- received the Master of Divinity degree. Youth director David Scott received the Master of Arts degree in Biblical studies. Pastor Mininger retired from Lake Sherwood in 2019 after 48 years of service. Rev. Sadorf now ministers in the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church and David Scott, who went on to earn an MDiv at Westminster Seminary California, is a pastor in the Presbyterian Church in America.
