David Moyer Rex Chapman awardRev. Dr. David Moyer
Former Chair, RHF National Board of Directors

Rev. Dr. David Moyer is a retired United Church of Christ minister ordained in 1972 and was an integral part of the Retirement Housing Foundation’s National Board of Directors from 2013 until 2024. A distinguished graduate of Elmhurst College, Eden Theological Seminary (M.Div.), and Princeton Theological Seminary (D.Min.), he brought his extensive experience to the role of board chair from 2020 to 2023.

During his tenure as chair, the organization navigated significant transitions, bidding farewell to longtime President and CEO Dr. Laverne Joseph, welcoming new leadership under Mr. Stuart Hartman, and adapting to the challenges posed by the pandemic. Additionally, under his guidance, RHF shifted its focus from healthcare to prioritize senior and affordable housing, while also implementing a new strategic plan.

Throughout his career, Rev. Moyer served various congregations, including those in Lockport, Illinois, and Windsor, Wisconsin, as well as fulfilling roles such as regional Association Minister for the United Church of Christ in western and northern Wisconsin. Notably, from 2001 to 2013, he served as the Conference Minister of the Wisconsin Conference UCC, overseeing the pastoral care of over 250 congregations and clergy.

RHF is pleased to present the Rex Chapman Award to Rev. Dr. David Moyer.
