## Resource

In the bustling heart of Melbourne Airport, Salvation Army chaplain Martyn Scrimshaw has quietly become a lifeline for thousands—offering solace to grieving families, guiding homeless souls to shelter, and shielding victims of abuse as they flee danger. From comforting airline crews after in-flight deaths to thwarting romance scam victims’ heartbreaking hopes, Scrimshaw’s “parish” spans every corner of this global transit hub. He’s even helped a woman escape an abuser to Tasmania and a family vanish into untraceable flights to Scotland—all while staying until the last boarding call. His compassion, which once inspired a film starring Hugo Weaving, is rooted in one simple truth: no one is too broken, too lost, or too far gone to deserve help.
