Matt Kooi Takes Helm at Muskegon Rescue Mission | Grand Rapids News

Matt Kooi, a Muskegon native with over two decades of ministry leadership, is stepping into the president’s role at the Muskegon Rescue Mission — a position he’s already deeply familiar with from his four years as vice president. With roots in the community and experience leading youth ministries and Spectrum Ministries, Kooi brings both passion and practical insight to the helm. The board is thrilled with his appointment, praising his intimate knowledge of the mission’s programs and people. As he takes over from Dan Skoglund — who’s retiring as president emeritus through 2028 — the mission remains steadfast in its mission: lifting lives out of poverty, spiritually, emotionally, and financially. This is more than a leadership change — it’s a continuation of vital work, guided by someone who knows the streets, the hearts, and the hope of Muskegon.
