Ruth's ministry is theological education. She lives in Costa Rica, where she serves on the faculty of the Latin American Biblical University (UBL), a seminary founded in 1924 that prepares pastors and leaders for churches throughout Latin America.

Ruth teaches the Christian education courses as well as Written Communication and Ethics. All UBL professors teach in San José and in the 15 affiliated institutions in other parts of Latin America.

The University has also asked her to work with the Publications Department, editing course materials and books written by the faculty, and directing the bookstore.

  
Ruth has extensive experience in writing Bible study materials and training Sunday school teachers. Most recently, she directed Ediciones Lumbrera, a ministry of the Federacion de Asociaciones Bautistas de Costa Rica.  Previously she served in Cuba and El Salvador, where she trained curriculum teams to respond to the specific needs of the churches in those regions.
