Ronald began his teaching ministry with a Bible study on the letter to the Hebrews in 2014. Since then, he has taught classes on the Bible, Church history, Patristics (the study of the early Church Fathers), and theology. He is currently teaching classes on the Gospel of Mathew and Catholic apologetics, and has just completed a study of Laudato Si, Pope Francis' encyclical on the care of our common home.
Ronald serves as a lector for Masses at SJV and is the chairman of the Senior Singles Group in the parish. His two daughters, Latina and Janae, were raised as evangelical Christians. Last year, his elder daughter Latina joined the the Catholic church, followed this year by his younger daughter, Janae, at this year's Easter Virgil. All the members of the Petrusha family now embrace the faith of their father.
