"Lew & Marion have faithfully served the church for many years. Their heart for people and their faithfulness to the house of God has been exemplified in their everyday life. Their lives have been a testimony of the greatness of God. They speak from a wealth of knowledge and experience as they have served overseas on the mission field and in the church here at home "
Frank Damazio

Lew and Marion Peterson began ministering as teenagers in their local church doing "whatever their hands found to do". They began full-time ministry in 1958, the same year they were married, fulfilling their childhood visions to go into all the world and preach the whole gospel. A God-birthed "DNA" for ministry was formed deep in their spirits through their family heritage. Their understanding of the redemption of the cross combines with the transforming experience of the "1948 Visitation" to ignite their passion for speaking to all generations. That passion continues today as their fathering voice links the past, present and future of the Church.
As well as ministering in Canada and the USA, the Petersons have enjoyed the opportunity of ministry service in Europe, years in Africa, the Orient and also in the Canadian Arctic. They established Reaching Unto Nations (RUN) Bible Church and Ministries in Uganda East Africa which includes a Training Institute for Pastors, Ministers Fellowship International East Africa as well as RUN Bible Church in Kampala. RUN Ministries continues to expand under strong national leadership.
