Fruitland Park, FL — Dan Bauman, Former Professor Bethel Seminary
“I seldom recommend speakers. However, I do commend Dr. Ron Rand and the UpBuilding Weekend he leads. Here's why: He is believable; has strong credibility; uses humor with heavy emphasis upon Scripture; is a wonderful story teller; and our people absolutely loved him! Each session involved the persons attending and the cost was affordable to any church of any size. As a former homiletics professor I give Ron and "A+!"

Kokomo, IN — Jeff Russell, Pastor, New Beginnings Christian Fellowship
“The Weekend connects with people where they are and live. Ron uses interesting stories that children to senior adults can understand and apply in profound ways. He also challenges everyone to grow spiritually. Believe me when I say I guarantee every church will be blessed in many unusual and lasting ways!

Bradford, NH — Lynne Hubley, Pastor of First
“The Upbuilding weekend that Ron Rand led was an amazing turning point in the life of our church. Ron is a real, energetic, fun, Spirit filled man who loves the Lord with all his heart and has a unique calling for upbuilding people's faith. Children, adults,land leaders are still sharing how God worked in them during the weekend. Our people are applying the Word of God to their lives in practical and life-changing ways. Ron truly helped our church body be transformed from just "hearers of the word --to doers of the word".

Cincinnati, OH — John Kirby, Former Business Administrator, Kenwood
“Dr. Rand preached for us several times during our interim pastoral time so our people became quite familiar with him. We were grateful for the 17 conversions that we experienced at his invitation on Christmas and also for the numerous rededications that came during the Weekend.”

Mason, OH — Jeff Perkins, Pastor of Oak Harbor Community
“God has gifted Ron with wisdom that is clearly revealed in his practical teaching. Our congregation greatly benefited from Ron’s maturity as a seasoned pastor and from his integrity in applying God’s Biblical principles to his life as a spiritual leader. We, at Oak Harbor Community, are greatful recipients.”

Waynesburg, PA — Glynis LaBarre, Pastor of First
“Last weekend history was made as three of the largest churches co-hosted an Upbuilding Weekend. It was a wonder filled success! Dr. Rand's teaching was filled with practical Biblical application for keeping our relationships on target, growing, and practicing forgiveness, healing, and renewal where needed. The highlight was a miraculous joint worship service in the high school auditorium on Sunday! What a witness to our community! The whole Weekend was FUN and an effective way to get people involved in prayer and mission!

Dallas, TX — Brian Newman, Minister to Married Adults, Park Cities
“What impressed me most about the Weekend is how Ron was so effective with all ages. His ability to minister to the most senior adult to the youngest child is simply a ‘rare’ gift from God! Also, this ministry has such a strong Biblical basis. God’s Word was the focus of each of the sessions and was accurately presented. My own family was strengthened and up built, too!”

Bridgeport, WV — Michael Hopkins, Pastor of Simpson Creek
                             Bob Scharnhorst, Associate Pastor
“Ron has a remarkable style of presentation. Through practical acrostics, visual aids, humorous characters, story telling, histrionic scriptural memorizations, and ‘down to earth fun,’ the good news of God’s grace through Jesus Christ comes through loud and clear.”
