Robert and April Brooks

#0578755

Robert has served on staff with Athletes in Action since 2005. He began his mid-career staff life as Campus Director at the University of Pittsburgh. After 6 years of leading a growing campus ministry amongst the student athletes, he and his wife April relocated to Cleveland Ohio where he stepped in as the Team Chaplain for the Cleveland Browns. After 12 years, he took a new role and position as the National Director of HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) Ministries. "Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, watching over them---not because you must but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve" (1 Peter 5:2). This is one of many verses that he points to for the purpose of doing his part in fulfilling the Great Commission.

Robert and April have 5 beautiful children - Trey ('00), Jasmine ('02), Caleb ('05), Micah ('07), and Olivia ('10). God's love and faithful to our family never fails. The prayers, encouragement, and financial gifts (ministry) keep me on the mission field in many different arenas and campuses. Thank you again and again for your continued partnership and blessings upon blessings to you and yours. 

Gratefully Serving HIM!

Robert, April (and family)
