The Rev. Rudy Rasmus has pastored St. John’s UMC in Houston for the last 26 years. He says the ministry is focused on social justice. “When we look at this congregation I think our primary work has been to purvey hope to a very challenged and in many cases hopeless demographic.” ~ umcom video image

Early in his faith journey, the Rev. Rudy Rasmus learned to prioritize good, a tenet that still guides his ministry today.

Early in his faith journey, the Rev. Rudy Rasmus learned to prioritize good, a tenet that still guides his ministry today. Before meeting Jesus, other things like self and money had been at the top of his list. Today, St. John’s United Methodist Church in Houston, Texas, the congregation he co-pastors with the Rev. Juanita Rasmus, his wife, is prioritizing good throughout their community. Their membership, which includes Beyoncé and Solange Knowles, ministers in remarkable ways with their neighbors who are suffering from poverty.

Hear how Rudy’s faith was shaped by an aunt, grew under the tutelage of a United Methodist pastor and continues to inspire him to live openly, honestly and transparently every day.
