“Rod took me under his wing as I discerned a place for myself in the world. I still feel deeply connected to the church, in part because of who Rod was.”
With those words of remembrance during the The Presbyterian Health, Education and Welfare Association (PHEWA) Awards Reception, former GA moderator Rick Ufford Chase told some personal stories about Rodney T. Martin’s impact upon his life. Rod, who died last year at age 84, was a Presbyterian elder who led PHEWA as executive director from 1972-1990. He is credited with pioneering new models for social justice work and mentoring countless young pastors and activists. PHEWA began its General Assembly Awards Reception by honoring his legacy.
