Presenting the Rick Love Peace Awards WINNERS

Dr. Rick Love, the late Founder and President of Peace Catalyst International, dreamed of mobilizing people around the globe into a peacebuilding movement. Everyone who knew him knew this was his passion and that he worked tirelessly toward it. He founded Peace Catalyst because of that dream and dedicated the last ten years of his life to peacebuilding, courageously crossing social, political, and ideological divides and inviting others to do the same. He did so because of his Jesus-centered approach to all of life.

To honor Rick’s legacy, to further his vision, and to raise up more peacebuilders like him, Peace Catalyst has established the Rick Love Peace Awards and is proud to present the very first recipients. These prestigious awards honor those who creatively cross divides to build peace, exhibiting the same character and courage displayed by Rick.

• RICK LOVE PEACE AWARDS
  Rick was deeply concerned about the deteriorating narratives surrounding Muslims in the United States and globally, and to honor his work and passion, as well as the roots of Peace Catalyst International, two awards are presented to outstanding individuals working specifically among Christians and Muslims.

• RICK LOVE YOUNG INNOVATORS IN PEACEBUILDING AWARDS
  Rick cared deeply about young people and wanted a new generation of peacebuilders to be raised up after him. We therefore present two awards to young people to jumpstart their work and provide them with a path to living out peace in the way modeled by Rick.
