I Want My Life to Count: Peter Fretheim, 2026 Alumnus of the Year
“I grew up with all the things the world says should make you happy,” Peter said. “But I didn’t have Christ.” Peter Fretheim, our 2026 Alumnus of the Year, grew up surrounded by material abundance in Greenwich, Connecticut, one of the wealthiest communities in America. From the outside, it appeared he had everything he could ever need.
