Dear Friends,

This is my final e-newsletter to you. After fifteen years as Secretary General of Malteser International, I head into retirement from the fortunate position of being able to hand over an organization that has never been so strong, stable, or secure, in spite of the many challenges.

The achievements of the last years are in no small part thanks to the tireless professionalism and dedication of Malteser International’s staff all over the world. It was an honor and a pleasure to work with such a dedicated and competent team. I am confident that my successor, Clemens Graf von Mirbach-Harff, and this team will continue to drive many future successes for Malteser International in the years to come.

  The current pandemic, frequent natural disasters, and multiple crises around the world have shown that there is no letting up of needs. So I would like to leave you with the earnest request to continue to give us your steadfast prayer and support as we work to overcome the challenges ahead.

Please allow me to extend to you my most sincere thanks for your many years of support and to wish you all the very best for your future endeavors.
 
 
  Thank you and God bless you!

Yours truly,
