Hannah Jackson

Sent from St Nicholas’ Church, Sevenoaks
Hannah taught Geography in the UK for 14 years before spending a year on AIM’s short-term programme in northern Kenya. This was followed by serving with Oak Hall Expeditions and St Nicholas Church, Sevenoaks.
From 2021 to 2024, Hannah was part of a TIMO team in Likawage in rural Tanzania. Here she was learning Swahili and, with her teammates, built relationships and shared Jesus with their neighbours. The team sought to encourage members of the fledgling church to hold out the gospel to the local community. Some of Hannah’s Tanzanian teammates have stayed in Likawage to continue the work.
Hannah is now AIM’s Child Safety Lead and is based in Nairobi. AIM takes seriously its God-given responsibility towards all children, longing to see them develop into confident adults who know and love Jesus and can thrive in this fallen world. Hannah deals with safeguarding issues and helps AIM to be an organisation where children are safe and cared for.
Hannah is also involved with outreach to unreached people groups in the city.
She enjoys cooking, crafts and teaching the Bible to children.

Latest Prayer News

Hannah Jackson is the Child Safety Officer for AIM. She was recently encouraged by visitors on their way back to ministry in Korr in Northern Kenya. Her visitors had set up the schools where Hannah taught back in 2012-13, established the Rendille Bible translation project and looked after Hannah when she was a short-termer. She was honoured to spend time with them back in Kenya and hear stories of how God’s work in Korr is continuing and bearing fruit.

Hannah Jackson is the Child Safety Officer for AIM. This month she has more visitors coming to stay and is going to her first RVA board meeting. (Rift Valley Academy is an AIM boarding school near Nairobi.) She is also attending a conference for workers to North Africa. Due to the nature of their work locations, it can be harder to get to know these members, so pray she can build relationships and make useful contacts. At this conference Hannah will help the TCK (also called cross culture children) coordinator with some workshops; pray that they can support and equip families who are working in hard places, and that children can stay safe and thrive.

Hannah Jackson is the Child Safety Officer for AIM and is also involved with outreach to unreached people groups in Nairobi. The centre where she teaches English one day a week marked the end of term with a bring-and-share party including lots of delicious Somali and Ethiopian dishes. They had a ‘graduation’ ceremony with speeches and the presentation of certificates to mark the end of a unit. Classes have now restarted, and Hannah goes every Wednesday. Pray for good relationships and natural opportunities to share hope. After time as Cath Swanson’s deputy, Hannah took over the role of AIM’s Child Safety Officer from 1st September. Hannah is grateful for all Cath’s help in preparing her for this role, which feels both exciting and daunting. Pray that she will continue to learn well, work well with others, make godly decisions, and that AIM would be a safe place for children.

Kenya

Kenya gained independence from Britain in 1963. Since then British tourism has been a key element of Kenya’s economy, however, unemployment, poverty and crime remain high. Whilst the majority religion is Christianity, Kenya’s ethnic diversity and vast countryside means there are still many unreached with the gospel.

Support, Logistics & Pastoral Care

Seeing unreached people reached is fruit of the body of Christ in action. That can mean pilots, qualified counsellors, administrators, photographers all helping and supporting the task of making Jesus known.
