Nurse Ronda’s faith community nursing role includes health education, health resource, visitation, and coordinating volunteers. In her position she promotes whole person health, connecting body, mind and spirit. Ronda is a graduate of Bryan Hospital School of Nursing in Lincoln, Nebraska. Ronda states: “I have one of the best jobs at Bethany — being able to help others in a variety of ways! As Parish Nurse I am able to journey alongside our members through the highs and lows of life. Experiencing my own grief journey after the death of my husband in April 2012, God has been at work in amazing ways bringing comfort and a peace that passes understanding to me and my family. I have three adult kids and their spouses that care for the eleven grandchildren. In my position, I oversee Bethany’s prayer ministry, Small Groups, Stephen Ministry, Comfort Dog Ministry, and Bethany Lutheran Food Pantry.  I love vacationing on the shores of Lake Michigan at Camp Arcadia with my family and friends each summer and being involved in my grandchildren’s lives.”
