With a BA in Psychology, Ronda went on to complete a degree in Religion, with an emphasis on the connection between God’s closing work in the Heavenly Sanctuary working simultaneously in His people as the Sanctuary of God. Ronda has presented Sanctuary seminars across the United States and Romania, sharing with church groups, women’s retreats, and week of prayer for schools. After spending five years as a Bible Worker, she continues to teach personal and group Bible Study lessons leading many to Christ. Besides teaching Sabbath School class and New Believer’s classes, Ronda has taught cooking schools, and seminars on the topics of Righteousness by Faith, Communicating like Jesus, and The Power of Faith and Prayer.
In addition, her focus has been the fund raising and construction needed for opening a unique Gospel Medical Missionary School of Evangelism, a training center to prepare young people for the end times. For the past 17 years, as director of the Open Door Health Retreat Center, Ronda’s summers have been consumed with her greatest passion of educating and assisting with the spiritual and physical healing of hundreds of guests through cleansing programs and lifestyle training. Ronda has come to appreciate the meaning of the health work being “the right arm of the gospel.”
