Expanding Our Impact with Interim President Martin Brooks
We continue to mourn the passing of our founding President Rick Love, who passed away in the early hours of December 29, 2019. Rick spent the past decade building and leading Peace Catalyst into a global peacemaking organization that is impacting Christians and Muslims worldwide. We intend to honor him and the legacy he left by stewarding Peace Catalyst well into the future. The Board of Directors has appointed Martin Brooks as Interim President to guide us during this time as well as ensure our global peacemaking work continues strong as we expand to new cities and countries and establish new programs in conjunction with our partners around the world.
Martin has been serving as the Midwest Regional Director out of Louisville, Kentucky for the past nine years. He has been a key leader in our peacemaking work in that region and has modeled for us what peacemaking can look like when engaging a whole community, including the religious and civic leaders of Louisville. Martin has also been serving as Acting Director of Peace Catalyst while Rick battled cancer over the past year. We are thankful for your continued prayers and support of our work as, together with you, we continue expanding our impact in this coming decade.
