Mary Ruth (Ruthie) Kendall-Curtis is a dynamic speaker, seasoned leader, and passionate encourager of women across the globe. With decades of experience speaking at retreats, conferences, and workshops—both nationally and internationally—Ruthie brings wisdom, authenticity, and a deep love for God’s Word to every stage she graces.
Her journey of service began with the Women of the Church of God (Anderson, Indiana), where she held roles at both the State and National levels, including a seat on the Executive Committee. As a gifted writer and curriculum developer, Ruthie created impactful resources to equip and inspire women in their local congregations.
In her final role with the organization, she served as the Regional Director for the Northwest, traveling extensively to speak at state conventions in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada and Alaska. A career highlight came when she was selected—alongside three board members—to represent the United States at the Caribbean Regional Convention in Barbados.
Ruthie’s heart beats for Scripture. She finds joy in reading and memorizing God’s Word, anchoring her life in the prayer of Psalm 119:18 (NLT): “Open my eyes to see the wonderful truths in your instructions.”
