Ruth E. Meed was born the first of twin girls in Ethiopia, and at age 9 moved with her family to Ontario, Canada and then on to New Brunswick, where she finished her school years. She earned a Diploma of Biblical and Theological Studies from New Brunswick Bible Institute, a BA in Counseling from Washington Bible College, an MAT in Special Education, and MEd in Biblical Counseling from Bob Jones University. Ruth is a “Highly Qualified” certified Special Educator. She also has John Maxwell Leadership Certification.

Local Church ministry has been her life mission, including opportunities for the service to her Lord as an AWANA youth club leader/Director, and singing in choirs and other music groups. Her experiences include: acting as the resident social worker in a group home for girls in Manchester, NH, teaching in Greenville County, SC and Bob Jones Academy in Special Education Classrooms, 3rd-8th grade, and most recently as an Assistant Professor of Education in the Special Ed Division at Bob Jones University, for a total of 25 years teaching and making a difference in the lives of young people.

During the last seven years, significant health challenges have given her a toolbox of perspectives on the meaning of endurance. She still travels speaking and consulting at various venues in North America on a restricted basis and has also traveled to Africa to teach as God gives strength.
