Eldon Stoltzfus Resigns; Jeanne Davies Appointed

It is with regret that the ADN board of directors announces Eldon Stoltzfus’ resignation as Executive Director for Anabaptist Disabilities Network for health reasons as of May 1, 2020. Eldon was an effective leader whose passion for our mission and enthusiasm for his work will be missed.

At the same time, the ADN board is pleased to announce that Jeanne Davies has accepted the board’s appointment as the new ADN Executive Director, effective June 1, 2020. Jeanne is currently ADN program director and will increase her time commitment as she assumes new responsibilities. We look forward to her expanded leadership in this new role.

She is ordained in the Church of the Brethren, has a Master of Divinity from Bethany Theological Seminary in Richmond, Indiana, and is working on a Certificate in Disability and Ministry at Western Theological Seminary in Holland, Michigan.
