Please note: I am just now finding this out and, yes, it was a big shock to me. 😯 😥

Jack Chick passed away peacefully in his sleep on Sunday evening, October 23, 2016. He was 92.

We at Chick Publications all loved Jack.

We are like a family, and he was our closest relative. He loved every one of us, and we regularly got to tell him our appreciation and love for him. We got to see what kind of person he was on a daily basis —some people for over 45 years! It was very important for us to be with him before he made his final journey.

Unlike the king in the Chick tract The Fool, Jack had made every preparation for his eternal future. So we visited him to pray, to tell him we loved him, and to bless him on his way to his eternal reward.

To say that this was a huge shock for me, would be the understatement of the century. Jack gave his life for the Salvation of souls. I discovered Jack Chick’s tracts and comics as a boy at Open Door Baptist Church in Detroit, back when Larry Dennis was the Pastor. His message was always consistent; no one else can save you, only Jesus can!

Save me a spot around Throne of Grace Jack, I’ll be there to join you, one day.
