WaterBrook & Multnomah mourn the loss of author Boris Vujicic

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (May 16, 2017)—WaterBrook & Multnomah mourn the loss of  friend and author Boris Vujicic, who died May 14, 2017. 
 
Boris Vujicic is the father of New York Times best-selling author and international evangelist Nick Vujicic, who was born without any limbs. 
 
In Raising the Perfectly Imperfect Child: Facing Challenges with Strength, Courage, and Hope (WaterBrook) Boris shared the remarkable journey of how he and his wife, Dushka, overcame their grief, fears and badly shaken faith to raise an accomplished, faith-filled and perfectly imperfect son. WaterBrook released the book in hardcover in Spring 2016 and it is now also available in paperback.

Boris Vujicic served as Chief Systems and Financial Officer for Attitide is Altitude, Inc., the organization established by Nick Vujicic. Born in Yugoslavia, Boris immigrated with his family to Australia where he and his wife started two churches and helped in the missions and ministry of several more churches in other countries.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the Vujicic family during this time. We have been honored to publish his book, which is a special gift to the body of Christ and the world,” said Alex Field, vice president and publisher of WaterBrook & Multnomah.
