NCU and the AG mourn the loss of a great leader

Former Assemblies of God General Superintendent George Wood passed away today at the age of 80, after a battle with stage four cancer.

Dr. Wood served as General Superintendent for over a decade and made notable changes in the denomination such as focusing on increasing diversity, as well as launching several initiatives such as AGTrust and the Church Multiplication Network.

“Dr. George Wood was a great personal friend to me and role model to thousands. His combination of intellect and fire was unsurpassed. This is a great loss for the American Church.”
North Central University President Dr. Scott Hagan

Dr. Wood was a beloved chapel speaker over the years and had strong ties with NCU leaders past and present. He impacted countless NCU alumni through the decades, and will be greatly missed by all.

Please join us in prayer for his family at this difficult time.
