Jack Hemmings AFC

10 Aug 1921 – 24 Jan 2025

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our beloved MAF co-founder Jack Hemmings AFC who died peacefully in his sleep on Friday 24 January, at the age of 103.

The former RAF squadron leader and pilot achieved much in his lifetime including fighting for his country, helping to launch MAF in 1945, and piloting the first humanitarian survey across central Africa in 1948.

He was awarded the Air Force Cross in 1946 and is believed to be the oldest British pilot to take control of a Spitfire.

When was the last time you shared the Gospel?

 

Many isolated communities across Papua New Guinea have never read the Bible; they’ve never had a chance to know God’s word. This is because they haven’t had access to it—or if they have, it hasn’t been in a language they understand. 

But that can change today. With your donation, we can put a Tok Pisin Bible or audio Bible on the next flight to PNG. Together, we can share the Gospel with the isolated.
