The Flying Nun

Sister Anne Maree Jensen’s Aerial Ministry Outback Parish covers a territory of 280, 000 square kilometres with a population of approx 1 500. The United Kingdom is slightly larger with a population of 57 million. Such is the extent of isolation and hardship of people living in this desolate land her companionship is crucial. Travelling with her over this remote land was a privilege.
