NEW CASTLE, Del.—After serving the Lord for forty years at Berean Baptist Church, New Castle, Delaware, Pastor Ronald Sordelet and his wife, Ruth, retired on December 31, 2008. Sordelet graduated from Baptist Bible Seminary, Johnson City, N.Y., in 1966, and returned to earn a master of ministry degree from BBS and a master of arts in counseling from Biblical Seminary, Hatfield, Pa.
The church honored the couple with a retirement dinner attended by present and former church members and friends. Many of those in attendance testified how the Lord had used Pastor Sordelet to impact their lives spiritually. The Sordelets thank the Lord for allowing them to serve Him over many years and look forward to His future blessings.<a
