EASTON, Md., March 18, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ -- Following an extensive national search, the SAT-7 USA board of directors is pleased to announce the appointment of the new SAT-7 USA President, Mr. John Paul Cerniglia. He will assume his new position on April 28, 2025.
Most recently, Mr. Cerniglia served as senior vice president & chief development officer, Operation Mobilization USA, where he led the growth of the Global Generosity Team and helped the mission significantly increase its financial support.
“What a privilege you have offered me,” John Cerniglia observed. “I am grateful and excited to see what the Lord will do through us. I am deeply inspired by our vision ‘to see a growing church in the Middle East and North Africa, confident in Christian faith and witness, serving the community and contributing to the good of society and culture.’ I look forward to meeting each of our workers and partners. You have my commitment to listen well, to learn, to contribute to our spiritual formation, and to lead toward substantial growth and impact. Thank you!”
Mr. Cerniglia has served in global missions leadership roles for 32 years, and his ministry has spanned 45 countries. His experience includes service with The United Methodist Children’s Home, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Habitat for Humanity International, and CARE USA. He is a CFRE, an alumnus of Houghton College, and adjunct faculty for the Indiana University Lilly School of Philanthropy.
“We are delighted to welcome John Cerniglia to our ministry,” said SAT-7 USA Board of Directors Chair Mr. Peter Schulze. “John is an experienced development leader who combines a love for the Lord, a passion for global missions, and a desire to serve our ministry partners. He can build on the strong foundation with which God has blessed us, striving for the next level of effectiveness in engaging prayer and financial partners to make God’s love visible in the Middle East and North Africa.”
Mr. Cerniglia will succeed the current 16-year president, Dr. Rex M. Rogers, who announced his intention to retire on May 30, 2025.
