Peter Rowan, co-national director of OMF United Kingdom, died on Monday, at the age of 57.
Rowan and his wife joined OMF in 1997 to serve in Thailand, said OMF United Kingdom (UK). Then they moved to Malaysia for language study and teaching work. The couple started to serve as co-national directors of OMF (UK) in January 2010.
“Throughout his tenure as Co-National Director, Peter was a driving force behind many important initiatives, and his tireless efforts helped shape OMF (UK) into what it is today. Peter’s commitment to mission, his deep missiological insights, and his heart for East Asia’s peoples will remain a lasting legacy,” commented OMF (UK).
Founded by Hudson Taylor as “the China Inland Mission” in 1865, OMF International is a global fellowship of Christians to share the gospel with the people of East Asia.
