Originally from St. Paul, Ruth has been volunteering and working with teens in ministry for over ten years.  She began working in Youth Ministry for St. Albert and St. Michael in 2015 and in 2019 her job duties shifted to focus on the Discipleship Group outreach of both parish - St. Albert and St. Michael. In addition to working with the hundreds of families and volunteers in our local community, and continuing to work with the various ministries for our youth, she loves her opportunities to speak for various parishes and Catholic organizations, sharing her own story of God's love in her own life and the teachings of His Church.  She lives in Buffalo with her husband, Daniel and their three children, Monica, Lilianna and Peter.
