Dennis grew up in southeast New Mexico, just west of the Texas border and not far from Roswell and White Sands National Park - which he, always ready to interject some humor, would often describe as looking like 100,000 square miles of kitty litter. He was the second of three sons born to...

Not sure what to say?

Rory, Jenna & Joel. I am sorry to hear about your Dad. I was in prayer group last night and thinking about BNC so I thought I would look to see info. I am so thankful for your parents. Your dad loved people and teaching & preaching about Jesus. I often said his teaching was so valuable to me as was his preaching. I also still have some of the notes I took in your Mom's ladies bible study. How many times through the years I have told people about the creation conferences and seeing Ken...

Bitter Sweet to learn of my friend Dennis' graduation. Sad because the world will be without him now and I will miss him, but happy he is now with our Lord and his beloved wife he was so lonely without. I became friends with Dennis in 2015 when he learned I was a Photographer and we lived only 5 minutes away from each other. He asked if I would photograph his ICA stones for an article he was writing for the Journal of Creation December issue 2016. Me and my 4 year old son went to his house,...

Lee, Rory and Family It will be a long time for me, to replace the value that Dennis and Sharon provided for me. Hoping they know what they have meant to those that got a chance to really know them and what they represented.

People, friends that turned away even after God's miracles and wonders where shown to them. Dennis who never sought to form a church, blessed by God in...

Our family is grieving about the news of Pastor Swift. Our deepest sympathies. Bob & Lynette and Monika Van Vlack

This obituary is well written and moving. As a peer that knew Dennis well over many years of collaborating on creation research, I would only add that Dennis seemed at his finest when leading creation tours in Peru. I've included photos from a couple of trips there. Anybody that joined him for a tour will immediately identify with the pic of Dennis at the microphone, explaining (typically with a bit of dry humor) where we were going and all about the significance of the archaeology. He had a...

It was a joy to have Dennis Swift as our Pastor for many years and to serve under his leadership on missions trips and on the worship team. His love for God, his flock and the nations was one that was clearly evident to all who met him. He was selfless, kind, tenacious, and not afraid to speak God´s truth, no matter the cost. He is missed, but we look forward to being reunited with him and Sharon someday again. Thank you to the Swift and Cookman family for sharing your father and grandfather...
