Kathy Cooper (BA, Yale ’88; MDiv, Regent College ’08) loves helping people come alive to Jesus through Scripture, whether leading in-depth Bible study discussions, teaching people how to reflect theologically about their work, or listening for God’s presence in the sharing of life stories. Kathy has worked with InterVarsity for 35 years in a variety of roles, most recently as the Northeast Regional Director for Graduate & Faculty Ministries. Last summer Kathy made a happy decision to return to local ministry on campus, focusing on ministry with faculty at Brown University and universities in Rhode Island and southeast Massachusetts.
Kathy and her husband Keith live in Providence, Rhode Island and have three adult daughters and a wonderful son-in-law. Kathy enjoys gardening, cooking, reading (mostly fiction), and good conversation. Over the years, it’s been a joy to get to know refugees in Rhode Island through the non-profit Keith directs, Beautiful Day.
