The Next Chapter for The Extreme Tour UK & Europe
As we move into a new season, we want to share clearly where The Extreme Tour UK & Europe stands, and where it is going.
Nearly 15 years ago, what God had been forming through The Extreme Tour in the United States for over two decades was carried across the Atlantic. What began as an inspiration, an idea God laid on the heart of our founder and Executive Director, Ted Bruun, when he was still a young man, had grown into a movement rooted in service, unity, and creative mission.
Scott Lack and Vincent Leone, along with their families, helped break new ground across the UK and Europe, building partnerships, forming relationships, and planting that same DNA into new soil.
Following them came a faithful succession of leaders who continued to build on that foundation: Ted and Suzanne Bruun, then Angelo and Kim Gonzales, followed by John Gold, and most recently Jerry Fee, each serving in their season to strengthen, steward, and apply the vision entrusted to this ministry.
We are deeply grateful for every leader who has invested in this work.
This movement has always been collaborative.
It has always been generational.
And it has always been bigger than any one individual.
As we step into 2026, we do so with renewed alignment and seasoned leadership.
John Gold and Angelo Gonzales will return to help lead teams across the UK and support the growing work throughout Europe. Joining them for the first time on that side of the Atlantic will be Paul Krueger, Chairman of The Extreme Tour Board and a veteran leader from the early years of the movement.
Ted and Suzanne Bruun will continue their active involvement on the ground, particularly in connection with The Objective UK & Europe and elements of the tour itself, as they have faithfully done for the past decade.
This year will also see the return of several artists who have previously traveled to the UK and Europe and left a lasting impact, alongside a new generation of artists preparing to engage through both Extreme Tour UK and The Objective UK & Europe.
All of this work will move forward under the shared oversight of the U.S. leadership and board of The Extreme Tour, in collaboration with the newly established board of the UK Love Done Loud charity, strengthening accountability and long-term development across the region.
But this year is not only about leadership continuity.
It also marks the beginning of the next evolution.
From the establishment of The Objective Europe, casting vision and gathering artists.....
to the development of The Extreme Tour UK & Europe as a living laboratory where artists could practice those principles in real communities…
We now believe we are stepping into the next chapter.
That next chapter is "Love Done Loud". (www.LoveDoneLoud.com)
As 2026 unfolds and we move toward 2027, Love Done Loud will serve as an ongoing network, bringing artists, community partners, and leaders together not just for a season, but for sustained collaboration and impact.
Where The Objective casts vision....Where The Extreme Tour activates and trains....Love Done Loud will work to disciple, mobilize, equip, and sustain.
Through the formation of a new initiative: "The Artisend Alliance" and the launch of a growing digital platform on YouTube and Social Media, artists across the UK and Europe will be connected year-round, sharing initiatives, strengthening partnerships, launching new collaborative efforts, and supporting community projects with creativity and purpose.
The heartbeat remains the same:
To Demonstrate and Declare the Love of God through the arts, serving hurting communities with God's Love, creativity, excellence, and unity.
The structure may grow.
The platforms may expand.
But the mission remains steady.
We are grateful for the foundation that has been laid and excited for the next chapter unfolding across the UK and Europe.
And we invite you to continue building with us.
