In our age of celebrity mania, we need heroes more than ever. How grateful I am to God for having given me a true hero.
Ruth Siemens came bursting into my life when I was a recently converted college student studying in Madrid, Spain, in the 1970s.
Ruth was already a veteran missionary who had pioneered campus ministry in Peru and Brazil with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students. Now living in Spain she was pioneering student work at universities in both Spain and Portugal. A whirlwind of zest and enthusiasm, her passion for God was contagious.
