George Hunter’s life was one of unflinching devotion and solitary courage. For nearly four decades he traversed the raw landscapes of Central Asia—through blinding blizzards, impassable mud, and scorching sands—carrying only the Gospel, a simple travel cart, and an unwavering faith. In partnership first with Percy Mather and later with fellow servants of Christ, Hunter learned the languages of nomadic tribes, brokered the exchange of rare Scriptures, and built humble homes of sun-dried brick in the heart of Urumqi. Even when political winds turned hostile, his hand-written journals and tireless journeys planted seeds that would bear spiritual fruit long after he departed.

Yet behind the legend of the “aged preacher of Urumtsi” was a man whose greatest strength lay in prayerful discipline and single-minded purpose.
