Ron & Wanda Thompson were 1971 graduates of the Grand Rapids (Mich.) School of the Bible and Music. Following graduation, they moved to Utah, where they served for 36 years in a church planting ministry with Biblical Ministries Worldwide, starting 4 churches.
During a portion of those years they were ‘on loan’ to Tentmakers Bible Mission while they planted Mt. View Bible Church in LaVerkin, Utah.
In the 6 years prior to joining TBM, they coordinated a Church Planting Consortium in northern Utah. The Consortium is a joint vision of TBM and Biblical Ministries Worldwide (BMW) which has expedited the planting of churches in Idaho, Utah, and Nevada.
In addition to his role as Executive Director, Ron teaches part time at Frontier School of the Bible in LaGrange, Wyoming, where they now reside. Wanda serves as a part-time secretary in the TBM office.
They have two daughters, Kara and Lora, and two grandchildren.
