About

Rev. Dr. Ronald and Mary Anne Rall serve the Lord through The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) as missionaries in Papua New Guinea. In this role, Ronald teaches courses in Lutheran theology at Timothy Lutheran Seminary in Birip. He also conducts continuing education workshops for pastors and evangelists in remote areas and distributes reading glasses.
Ronald received his associate’s degree from Concordia University, St. Paul, St. Paul, Minn., and his bachelor’s degree from Concordia Senior College, Fort Wayne, Ind. He received his Master of Divinity and his Doctor of Ministry from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis. From 1973-1981, he served as an evangelistic missionary to Papua New Guinea. In 2008, he taught at the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Ghana (ELCG) in Accra, Ghana.
Mary Anne’s hometown is Erlanger, Ky. She received her bachelor’s degree from Thomas More College, Crestview Hills, Ky. She served alongside Ronald in Papua New Guinea from 1973-1981. Ronald and Mary Anne have six children.
Pray for Ronald and Mary Anne as they serve the Lord in Papua New Guinea. Ask God to bless them with good health. Pray that they serve the people of Papua New Guinea according to God’s will. Pray for the Gutnius Lutheran Church in Papua New Guinea as it faces many challenges to share the Gospel with many language groups and to provide helpful printed materials for pastors, evangelists and teachers. Ask God to strengthen Ronald and Mary Anne that they might support the church in this endeavor. Let us give thanks to God the Ralls have answered His call to serve the Lord and His people in this part of the world.
