On 14 July 2020, our
dear brother
in Christ
Peter Maiden met his
Saviour
face
to
face.
With his passion
for
exegetical preaching and
his
shepherd’s
heart,
Peter leaves a legacy of
sharing God’s truth with
love
and
compassion
that will live on within
world missions.
As
the
International Director of OM
from 2003 to 2013, Peter emphasised the
spirituality of OM team members and the
importance of God’s word permeating the
entire life of Jesus followers. While leading
a life of total surrender to Jesus, in both his
public and personal life, he demonstrated
a quiet steadiness coupled with a visionary
passion for seeing the lives of people around
the world changed by Christ. Under his
leadership and guidance, new ministries
developed as part of OM’s growing holistic
approach to mission.
