Fr. Ron Stanley

Fr. Ron Stanley-was the spiritual director of the FIC* bunch at Rutgers. Eric & Fr. Ron founded Filipinos In Christ together to help Filipinos at Rutgers express their Christian spirituality. Fr. Ron always made it to all the cool parties.

Fr. Ron not only preaches beautifully about finding Jesus Christ in the poor, he also lives it faithfully. Fr. Ron used to reiterate Mother Theresa’s lessons: “Live simply so others may simply live” and using each finger on one hand makes these five points: “PUT-YOUR-LOVE-INTO-ACTION!”.

Fr. Ron takes many students, including Eric, to the Dominican Republic to live with and serve the poor farming families of La Cuchilla. To know more about the Dominican Republic BRIDGES project, please visit
