Craig Hawkins

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the sudden passing of Professor Craig Hawkins. While returning from a ministry trip in India, Craig peacefully fell asleep at the airport and did not wake up.

As we await more details, we want to express that Craig's life was a testament to his deep love for his Savior, family, colleagues, and students. Only the Lord will reveal in Eternity, Craig's impact for the Kingdom during his time with us.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife, Janet, and his children, Joshua and Sarah. Amidst this sorrow, we find comfort in knowing that Craig has been joyfully reunited with his son, Daniel.

"Well done, good and faithful servant."

Please join us in praying for his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
