Millar Memorial Bible Institute (now Millar College of the Bible!) friends from over 55 years ago! Ruth was fun to be with waiting in line, with 25 of us girls, in the OLD Girls’ Dorm to use the “facilities “ ~ 1 sink, 1 bathtub, etc!! 😂 or working as Servers with the other Kitchen helpers. No wonder she had such a Servant-heart for Jesus!! Bill & I were so thankful for her ministry in Japan and in Winnipeg with her Japanese Family”!!!! - Posted by: Carol Luther (Bible School friends of 55 years!!!!) on: Nov 03, 2025
