A former missionary in Brazil, who is due to join a 20Schemes church planting project, is now recovering after being critically injured in a road accident.

Andrew Huffmier was hit by a car after stopping to assist a stranded driver on the highway and suffered multiple injuries. He was recently approved to join Mez McConnell as an associate church planter in Orkney.

An initial statement from 20Schemes revealed that despite there being no significant injuries to his organs, spine or brain, Andrew was in critical condition, on a ventilator and suffering from severe bruising on his lungs and heart. He underwent six operations in one week.
