In 1966, Jackie Pullinger left the UK on a boat, aged 22 and with just £10 in her pocket, not knowing where she’d get off. Docking in Hong Kong, she sensed God saying that was the place. Her work in the Walled City of Kowloon saw triad gang members come to faith, girls rescued out of brothels, and thousands of drug addicts over the ensuing decades being set free. That story was told in the best-selling ‘Chasing the Dragon’, and she’s still in Hong Kong with a network of faithful workers, ministering to many more broken people, living by faith and trusting God to provide for their needs. What a challenge and inspiration!
