Ron & Carol Soderquist

MINNEAPOLIS, MN

Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC)

Ron & Carol have served with Campus Crusade since 1980, starting out in Sweden, then served in the Pentagon in Washington DC until 1998, spent 3 years in Pennsylvania and then came to Minneapolis in 2001 and serve in the Priority Associates Ministry. This ministry presents Christ and develops spiritual leaders in the marketplace where the professionals work.

Ron meets with these professionals for Bible studies, mentoring and developing spiritual leaders to reach more professionals. They have now started new groups at Target and at their office in Edina. About 20 men meet with Ron about twice a month to see how they are personally developing. Ron also coordinates the staff team. Now in his 60’s, Ron finds it very fulfilling to hear from some of his previous staff and of the work they are now doing.

Carol is busy with a Women’s Bible Study and is currently tutoring a Russian woman and her friend in English, using the Bible as a textbook. Carol has taught many immigrant women English this way. Their 3 children, Ingrid, Anna and Peter have provided them with 10 grandchildren and Carol is happy that 5 of them live within a two-mile radius.
