Prince Charles in 1996 and H.R.H. Prince Andrew in 2003. He also served as a member of the Council of Churches (made of two representatives of each of the five officially recognized churches in Morocco) from 1998 to 2010.
Jack served in a volunteer capacity as Interim General Manager of the United Bible Society in Morocco (SBAM) from 1998 to 2000.
Jack attended the National Prayer Breakfast from 2002 to 2008 and brought several Moroccan officials as part of a Moroccan Interfaith delegation.
In 1998, on behalf of the Bible Society and the local Anglican Church, Jack presented an Arabic copy of St. Augustine's "Confessions" to the late King Hassan II.
On September 16, 2001, Jack helped coordinate a memorial ceremony held in St. Peter's Cathedral in Rabat. He spoke on behalf of the Christian community and also led prayers.
In 2010, shortly after returning to the USA, Jack was shocked by the unchristian public actions of Pastor Terry Jones. Jack wrote an open letter to Pastor Terry Jones (VF: Une lettre ouverte au Pasteur Terry Jones) of Gainesville, Florida in order to voice an opinion of many Christians living in Muslim countries. Copies of the letter in English and French are below:
