The Rev. Dr. Aaron E. Lavender, retiring at the end of the month after 40 years as pastor - including 34 at Grace Baptist Church here in Kansas City, Mo., is “leaving the pulpit but not the ministry” he said this week as he discussed his career, outlook on Christianity in today’s society, and his future.

Retirement Celebration activities will span two days this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 17-19, at the Grace Baptist Church located at 8524 Blue Ridge Boulevard.

A parade honoring Pastor Lavender and his wife, Ledora, will begin on Saturday, at 1 p.m. An Appreciation Retirement Service at the church will begin on Sunday, at 10:30 a.m., to be led by the Grace Baptist Church pastoral team.
