Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
In 1966 Jackie Pullinger went to Hong Kong on a one-way ticket and arrived knowing no one with just $100 HK in her pocket. She lived and worked in Kowloon's notorious 'Walled City' and saw the remarkable power of God working in the lives of the marginalised. The work grew, and by 1981 Jackie had set up the St Stephen's Society, providing rehabilitation homes for recovering drug addicts, sex workers and gang members.
The charity's work has been recognized by the Hong Kong government who donated the land for the rehabilitation homes and thousands of people in Hong Kong and further afield have had their lives transformed in miraculous ways.
Jackie's story is told in her book Chasing the Dragon and she still lives in Hong Kong and runs the St Stephen's Society.
Andrew Quicke is Chairman of the School of Cinema-Television at Regent College, Vancouver, Canada. He has lived in London, Southern California, Bangkok Thailand and Jerusalem Israel where he was bureau news chief for CBN and Middle East Television.
