Introducing OCCA’s new Executive Director, Jo Frost
We are delighted to share that the Board of OCCA has appointed Jo Frost as our new Executive Director.
OCCA exists to engage people’s heartfelt questions about the Christian faith, share the beauty and credibility of Jesus in schools, universities, businesses and churches, and equip the church to share the life-transforming good news of Jesus Christ confidently. Jo’s appointment strengthens OCCA’s mission with her years of experience in leadership and passion for evangelism.
As Executive Director, Jo will provide overall leadership for OCCA’s ministry, staff and strategy. She will work closely with the Board and senior team to ensure that our teaching, communications, events and fundraising all serve our mission to the church and the next generation, including our Reboot youth apologetics work. Jo will formally take up the role of Executive Director at the end of February.
Many of you will know Jo from her work at the Evangelical Alliance, where she has served as Director of Communications and Engagement and co-director of the Being Human project. She brings a rare combination of theological depth, cultural awareness and proven leadership, drawn from years in Christian ministry, church leadership, communications consultancy and public engagement.
Please join us in praying for Jo, her husband Andy and their daughters as they prepare for this new chapter, and in praying for OCCA as together we continue to serve the church and reach those who are asking big questions about God and life.
