  • John Harper (Houston, Renfrewshire, Escocia, 29 de mayo de 1872–océano Atlántico Norte, 15 de abril de 1912) fue un pastor bautista británico que murió en el desastre del Titanic.

En 1897, se convirtió en el pastor principal de la Iglesia Bautista Camino Cachemira en Glasgow, Escocia. Bajo su cuidado, la iglesia creció rápidamente de 25 miembros a 500 y pronto se mudaron a un nuevo local en la calle Pantation. En 1903 se casó con Annie Leckie Bell (1866-1906), con quien tuvo una hija, Annie Jessie (apodada Nana o Nina, 1906-1986),​ y posteriormente fue nombrado pastor de la Iglesia Bautista en Walworth Road, Londres. Al momento de la catástrofe del Titanic, Harper tenía 39 años y era viudo. Viajaba junto con su hija y su sobrina, Jessie Wills Leitch (1880-1963),​ a Chicago para predicar por algunas semanas en la iglesia de Moody, donde él había sido invitado a ministrar. Cuando el barco golpeó un iceberg en la noche del 14 de abril de 1912, su hija y su sobrina sobrevivieron gracias a que fueron salvadas en un bote salvavidas. Harper permaneció en cubierta y saltó al agua mientras el barco comenzaba a hundirse. Un sobreviviente contó que Harper predicó el evangelio durante el fin especialmente Hechos 16:31 («Ellos dijeron: Cree en el Señor Jesucristo, y serás salvo, tú y tu casa»). Primero a bordo de la nave y más adelante a todos aquellos a su alrededor en el agua helada antes de morir él también. La historia de John Harper a bordo del Titanic es narrada en el libro The Titanic´s Last Hero (El último héroe del Titanic), publicado por Moody Adams. La versión de los últimos días de John Harper a bordo del Titanic fue publicada por Christian Focus Publications en marzo de 2011, en un libro titulado Titanic-Ship of Dreams - John Harper (Titanic nave de sueños - John Harper) escrito por Robert Pain.

In 1923, it moved into its present building on Craigiehall Street and was renamed Harper Memorial Baptist Church in his honor. At the time of the Titanic disaster, Harper was 39, a widower with a six-year-old daughter, Annie Jessie (Nana), and pastor of Walworth Road Baptist Church in London. He was traveling with his daughter and niece Jessie W. Leitch to Chicago to preach for several weeks at the Moody Church, where he had been guest minister the previous fall, when the ship hit an iceberg on the night of 14 April 1912, and was lost. His daughter and niece were put on a lifeboat and survived, but Harper stayed behind and jumped into the water as the ship began to sink. Some who survived told that Harper preached the Gospel to the end (especially Acts 16:31), first aboard the sinking ship and then afterward to those in the freezing water before dying in it himself. The story of John Harper aboard the Titanic is told in the book, The Titanic's Last Hero, published by Moody Adams. A children's version of John Harper's last days on board the Titanic was published by Christian Focus Publications in March 2011 titled 'Titanic – Ship of Dreams – John Harper' written by Robert Plant.

  • John Harper (Houston, 29 maggio 1872 – Oceano Atlantico, 15 aprile 1912) è stato un pastore protestante scozzese di rito Battista che morì durante il disastro del Titanic nell'Atlantico. Harper nacque nel villaggio di Houston, Renfrewshire, Scozia, in 1872. Abbracciò personalmente la fede Cristiana dei genitori all'età di quattordici anni e iniziò a predicare quando aveva diciotto anni. Da giovane Harper lavorò come manovale in una fabbrica finché il pastore Battista E. A. Carter della Baptist Pioneer Mission di Londra sentì la sua predicazione e lo collocò come ministro in Govan, Scozia. Nel 1897 divenne il primo pastore of Paisley Road Baptist Church a Glasgow, Scozia. Sotto la sua cura la chiesa passò rapidamente dai venticinque membri iniziali a oltre cinquecento, e presto si trasferì in un nuovo edificio in Plantation Street. Nel 1922, la chiesa si spostò ancora in quello che è ancora il suo attuale edificio in Craigiehall Street, e cambiò nome in Harper Memorial Baptist Church in onore del suo fondatore. Al tempo del disastro del Titanic, Harper aveva trentanove anni, vedovo con una figlia di sei anni, Annie Jessie (Nana), e pastore della Walworth Road Baptist Church a Londra. Era in viaggio verso Chicago con sua figlia e sua sorella Jessie W. Leitch per andare a predicare alla Moody Church per diverse settimane, dove aveva servito come ministro ospite l'autunno precedente, quando la nave fu colpita da un iceberg la notte del 14 aprile 1912. Sua figlia e sua sorella vennero imbarcate su una scialuppa di salvataggio, ma Harper rimase sulla nave e si lanciò poi in acqua una volta che la nave iniziò ad affondare. Alcuni sopravvissuti raccontarono che Harper predicò il messaggio del Vangelo fino alla fine (modellando la predicazione su quanto si trova in Atti 16:31), prima a bordo della nave che affondava e poi tra coloro che erano nell'acqua gelata, nella quale egli stesso poi morì. La storia di John Harper a bordo del Titanic è raccontata nel libro The Titanic's Last Hero, pubblicato da Moody Adams. Una versione per bambini della storia di Harper è stata pubblicata da Christian Focus Publications nel marzo del 2011, intitolata Titanic- Ship of Dreams - John Harper e scritta da Robert Plant. (it)
