My Hand in His

A rich life devoted to the support of mission with her hand firmly held in God's hand. Joy Devis spent part of her childhood in Australia, and returned to England on a ship during the Second World War. It was while she was nursing at Manchester Royal Infirmary, that she became involved with the Nurses Christian Fellowship and was instrumental in bringing many nurses to faith. Later she was one of the founders of the Navigators' work in England, when they expanded from the United States. Through her passion for mission and her innovative approach, she has led parish churches throughout the country to send and support missionaries in a structured, loving and practical way.
