I did get to know Ruth Ann while I was still at Bethany and she and I did a year together at Wartburg too. I hold her in the highest regard. Bethany continues the tradition of top-notch pastors. Good to hear from you and your enthusiasm for God's Word and God's people is a blessing to Bethany and continues to be a blessing to me!
peace,

Peace to you this day! 1 Cor 16:13
