To
Whom it May Concern:
Ruth's
seminar entitled "Two-gether Intimately" has been a wonderful success as she has
challenged our woman throughout the Alberta
NWT district of the Pentecostal Assemblies
of Canada.
Just
recently, Ruth shared one session at
our annual, "Women in Ministry Retreat." The session had an incredible impact
on the women that were present. I personally
had many testimonials of how the information
presented was life changing to those
who heard it.
Ruth
takes a delicate topic of sexuality and
within a Christian context offers clear,
humorous and helpful insights. I would
offer a strong word of recommendation
for anyone seeking to have a speaker
who handles this subject matter in a
most appropriate and challenging way.

Dear
Christian Friends:
I
would like to take this opportunity of
letting you know of our appreciation for
the ministry of Ruth Clarence with our ABA
Pastors' Wives Conference.
Our goal for this annual conference is to
build up these women in their personal
faith lives, in their marriage and home
relationships and in their church ministry
within our association. The theme for this
year's conference was Intimacy in Marriage
and we prayed for God to send us a speaker
who would help to accomplish our goals.
Ruth
Clarence came and we had a wonderful weekend
of hearing practical advice and reminders
in the area of our husband/ wife relationships.
Not only were these times with Ruth helpful,
she handled a sometimes difficult topic
with grace, discretion and sensitive
humour. There were no awkward moments
or uncomfortable individual situations.
Her willingness to be vulnerable enabled
many others to be open for the help they
had been seeking - some for many years.
Her attitude of being a learner herself
made us feel part of a family and bonded
us together more closely than ever. Ruth's
obvious love for the Lord Jesus Christ
and for her husband insured that we were
directed toward God and His Word for
help in developing our relationships
at home.
I
have no hesitation in heartily recommending
Ruth Clarence as a spiritually growing
person, as a loving wife and as a creative
and lovable person. Any opportunity that
I might have to be a part of her further
ministries would be welcomed and given
high priority in my own schedule.

To
Whom it May Concern:
As
a husband and family physician, I highly
endorse Ruth and Simon Clarence's "Two-gether
Intimately" seminar on human sexuality
for married couples.
My wife was invited by a friend to Ruth's
ladies seminar entitled "How to Meet Your
Husband's Sexual Needs". She thoroughly enjoyed
the seminar and encouraged me to join her
and attend the next couple's seminar.
I
was very impressed. Ruth and Simon are
both gifted communicators. The content
of the seminar was scientifically accurate
and biblically relevant. The information
was presented with humour, but in a sensitive
and tactful manner.
Attending
this seminar would be time well invested
for couples of all ages and a great start
for engaged couples.
Yours
sincerely,

To
Whom it May Concern:
As
a pastoral counselor and Chartered Psychologist,
I have used Ruth Clarence's book as a helpful
Christian resource for both individuals
and couples in my counseling ministry.
I
have promoted and encouraged ladies to
attend her women's seminars and couples
to participate in their couples seminar.
My
wife and I attended one of the couples seminars
and found the material and the presentation
to be Biblically-based and presented in
a very sensitive and professional manner
by both Ruth and her husband, Simon.
Special
attention needs to be made of the fact that this
material dealing with the celebration of sexual
intimacy in marriage is shared in a practical,
sensitive and wholesome manner.
I
am very pleased to highly recommend the ministry
of Ruth and Simon Clarence and would be
pleased to respond further to any questions
one might wish to ask about my support
of their ministry.
Sincerely,
Ross

Whom it May Concern:
It
has been our privilege to have Ruth Clarence
of Two-gether Ministries on 100 Huntley
Street, a Live, Canadian daily Christian
television program.
100 Huntley Street is seen coast to coast
in Canada and parts of the United States. Ruth
deals very tastefully with the subject
of her two books, "Romance 101" - 101 Creative and
Fun Ideas to Keep Your Marriage Alive!,
and "Two-gether Intimately" - Understanding and
Meeting Your Husbands Sexual Needs. The
response by viewers to her appearances
has been positive. I highly recommend Ruth
for her ability to beautifully communicate
a very sensitive subject in a clean yet
humorous way.
You'll
want her back again and again!
Sincerely.

To
Whom it May Concern:
Ruth
Clarence's seminar on Understanding and Meeting
Your Husband's Sexual Needs was a breath of fresh
air. In the Pastoral Ministry we are often faced
with difficult questions relating to husbands
and wives and their sexual relationship.
While attending this seminar, many of
those questions were answered.
Ruth
presents the material with professionalism
& humor, and shows a genuine concern to
see the sexual lives of married couples
is healthy, fulfilling, and all that God has
ordained it to be.
After
the seminar I had one lady from our church
come up to me and say, "I wish this would have
been taught 20 years ago."
Well,
it is being taught now and I am so thankful
that Ruth was obedient to the call of God on
her life to rise up this ministry. It is
much needed in the body of Christ and I
would recommend every married or engaged
woman to attend.
The
only thing left to say is "Ruth, you go
girl!!"

To
Whom it May Concern:
Ruth
Clarence came to Hillcrest Apostolic
Church in Moose Jaw Sk almost a year
ago now. She was with us to lead us
in her seminar "Understanding and
Meeting Your Husbands Sexual Needs."
I
would recommend this seminar to anyone.
Ruth was able to approach this subject from a
biblical point of view, with tact, honesty,
and transparence. At times she had us laughing
as we related to her, and at times we were in
silent contemplation as we became aware
of our God given responsibility in this
area of our marriage.
I
still am hearing from women about how they were
blessed at the Two-gether Intimately conference.
I
believe that the church is waking up to the fact
that intimacy is a gift from God and, Christians
are not exempt from divorce and unhappy
marriages. Ruth Clarence and Two-gether
Ministries are a gift that God has given
the church in this season. I am grateful
that she has said yes to the call on her
life and couples are being blessed.

To
Whom it May Concern:
I
have known Ruth Clarence for a number
of years and have worked with her in
a variety of situations during that
time. Two years ago I attended her
very first Understanding and Meeting
Your Husbands Sexual Needs conference
and was able to encourage many ladies
from our church to participate in what
was to become a growing ministry.
Although
it is not the kind of information that
you speak about loudly, the comments
from those ladies are unanimous that
the conferences contain valuable and
practical advice for marriage, shared
in a humorous and non-threatening
atmosphere.
Just
this week I received an e-mail from
a lady who had attended the most recent
conference. She stated that she had
come away feeling like she had new
energy for warmth and tenderness in
her relationship with her husband.
She commented, "it was very tastefully
done and she (Ruth) gave some very
good ideas. Well done!"
Ruth's
conferences have been a day well spent
for many ladies, and the teaching they
received will have a long term impact
on their lives.

After 24 years of marriage, this sensitive, practical, Biblical and humourus reminder that sexual intimacy involves so much more than "our time in the bedroom" was exactly what our relationship needed. Thank you so much for making yourselves available to be used by God in such a powerful way in this important yet often neglected area of the Christian life.
Après 24 ans de mariage, ce rappel que "l'intimité sexuelle implique beaucoup plus que notre temps dans la chambre à coucher", communiqué d'une manière simple, pratique, biblique et rempli d'humour, c'était exactement ce dont notre relation avait besoin. Merci tellement de nous avoir communiqué ce message puissant dans un domaine de la vie chrétienne si important et pourtant si négligé dans l'Église aujourd'hui."
Even more deeply in love now,

To whom it may concern:
We, the Straffordville EMC church have had Ruth Clarence conduct a Ladies Only seminar at our church entitled “Two-gether Intimately – Understanding and Meeting Your Husband’s Sexual Needs“.
We found her teaching very helpful and biblical and we all greatly appreciated it!
We found her presentation very tasteful and fun to listen to. She shared a lot of simple, affordable yet meaningful ideas for romance. It was very good to learn to understand how to meet our husband’s needs.
We found her presentation very relaxing and non-threatening!
We highly recommend Ruth to come and teach on this subject.
