Nathan and Hannah Farrow

Hannah and Nathan met at college in Hampshire during the early nineties. Nathan grew up in a caring Catholic family but turned away from his faith in his teens. It was through attending church with Hannah that Nathan came back to God. Hannah comes from a loving Christian family who served in West Africa where she fondly remembers flying with MAF from time to time.

Nathan first encountered the ministry of MAF at an airshow in the early 2000’s with his father and two young sons, where God graciously lit a fire in his heart. Between them Hannah and Nathan have had the privilege of gaining insight into serving Jesus abroad in three locations. These experiences, whilst challenging at times, have been formational and inspirational.

They married in 1997 and spent time in London where Hannah trained as a nurse and Nathan worked in management for a fast-food restaurant chain. In recent years Nathan has held various roles in telecommunications, including Health & Safety Management. More recently Hannah has studied counselling skills, prepared jacket spuds, done copious amounts of washing up and served in a local charity shop. Since 2020 Nathan and Hannah have called Christchurch Baptist Church home, where they have been getting to know some remarkable young people.

Whilst there have been some extremely tough seasons, God has faithfully shepherded them through each one (Psalm 23).

They are astonished and delighted in the way that God has led them to this point to join MAF and look forward to serving in Papua New Guinea with their two youngest children (Siena & Samuel). Aaron and Ethan, their two eldest, are forging their own paths, with Aaron soon to become a father.

They are excited to play a part in bringing essential medical care, education, technologies, and the Gospel to remote communities that would otherwise be inaccessible.
