Hannah Jackson

Sent from St Nicholas’ Church, Sevenoaks

Hannah trained as a teacher and taught Geography in the UK for a number of years before spending a year on AIM’s short-term programme in Korr, northern Kenya. Since then, she has served with Oak Hall Expeditions and St Nicholas Church, Sevenoaks whilst attending the Proclamation Trust’s Cornhill Training Course. She enjoys cooking, crafts and teaching the Bible to children.

From 2021 to 2024, Hannah was part of a TIMO (Training in Ministry Outreach) team in Likawage, a rural village in South East Tanzania. Here she was learning Swahili, and with her teammates built relationships and shared the gospel with their neighbours. The team sought to encourage members of the fledgeling church to hold out the gospel to the local community and together they ran a number of outreach events in villages in the Likawage area. Some of Hannah’s Tanzanian teammates have stayed in Likawage to continue the work.

Hannah is now part of the AIM’s Child Safety Team and is based in Nairobi while she learns what the role entails. 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.

Hannah Jackson is part of a TIMO team working among the unreached Swahili and Wangindo peoples of Likawage, southeast Tanzania. Give thanks for the outreach events last month which included songs, dance, preaching and showing the Jesus Film. One village already had twelve Christians living there, however, they weren’t regularly meeting together as a church family. Following an outreach event, they have been encouraged to start meeting together and have built a simple structure for shade or shelter to meet under. Praise God for this boldness to meet together and pray for God’s protection over this small church; that they will be built up and firmly rooted in Christ and not shaken by opposing views or beliefs around them.

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. LEARN MORE
