You are invited to a special Catalyst on Campus event with Rev. Eugene Cho, discussing Civility in Politics and Pursuing the Common Good.

Rev. Eugene Cho is President/CEO of Bread for the World, a Christian advocacy organization urging U.S. decision-makers to do all they can to pursue a world without hunger. Bread’s mission is to educate and equip people to advocate for policies and programs to help end hunger in the U.S. and worldwide.

Eugene preaches and speaks about Bread’s mission to end hunger, justice, and leadership at the intersection of faith and public life. By weaving together scripture, personal stories, and accessible hunger data, he encourages pastors, leaders, missionaries, and justice workers from churches and nonprofits worldwide to pursue God’s kingdom here on earth.
