At the inaugural “Cleveland for Christ” event on Sunday (June 7), two pro football players were baptized and community members gathered for prayer, worship music, and faith-sharing. Cleveland Browns chaplain Nobles Darby IV led the event, which was free and open to the public.
Metro Cleveland FCA, the organizer behind “Cleveland for Christ,” encouraged people to especially invite young athletes and non-believers. Because the gathering was held at a municipal swimming pool, it was the ideal place to make faith declarations through baptism.
Two Browns players did exactly that. Linebacker Carson Schwesinger and running back Raheim Sanders were both baptized at Sunday’s event. Other players present—and wearing matching “Cleveland for Christ” shirts—included Shedeur Sanders (no relation to Raheim), Taylen Green, Zion Washington, Chris Edmonds, Mason Graham, Daniel Thomas, and Tyson Campbell.
Thomas and Campbell, who previously played together in Jacksonville, each led portions of the worship event with Chaplain Darby.
