Ruth helps us understand the importance of caring for leaders serving globally.
ABOUT RUTH:
Ruth’s life goal is to know Christ and make Him known. She grew up in Nigeria. Her parents were involved in cross-cultural ministry in Nigeria. By grade 8, she knew with certainty that she, too, would be involved in cross-cultural work in some way. At the end of grade 10, having tired of boarding school, she asked her parents if she could live with her Grandparents in Canada. They welcomed her in and helped her adjust to life in Canada. At the age of 27 her parents were killed in a motor vehicle accident in Canada. This loss greatly affected her life and gave her an empathy for others who have faced unexpected life-altering losses.
Later she joined an international organization and has worked in Liberia, Kenya, and South Africa – doing urban church planting, member care, hospitality, and discipleship. For the last 12 years she has enjoyed the privilege of encouraging teams and leaders in many different countries in both Asia and Africa. Besides her family, her favourite people are cross-cultural workers and their children. Discipleship, mentoring, coaching, and encouraging God’s workers are some of her delights in life. Investing in leaders today, so they can face the challenges of tomorrow, brings her joy.
