Not sure what to say?

I loved the Bishop! many memories! 1980 March for Jesus! I broke bread with him at the land! He also loved people in my profession. (Police Officers). He is with the King! ps. I have his tapes of his songs he had written, and I still listened to them on occasion! 2024! 'He' 'Sweet Jesus Morning', and ' Had a talk with God'.

Robin, when I heard the news, my whole world stopped. I thank for your Mother! eh kiddo?

Bishop John led us into a personnal relationship with our Savior in the 70's and we had the privilege of serving him, Rock Church Family and particularly our Lord for over 25 years. As many have said, our lives were changed forever. He will be in our hearts and Sister Anne and all of his family will be in our prayers for as long as we live. We rejoice with all of his "family" in his home-going and heavenly reward.

I greive over the Godly Warrior's homegoing. I have spent many hours in prayer at Rock Church. He led many to the Lord. We need some of his passion for souls.

"Brother John" was one of the most profound individuals in my life. He looked into my eyes at the altar in July 1976, smiled and nodded and I knew I was looking into the eyes of a man of God and that I was going to be okay. I will miss him with all of my heart.

we extend our heartfeltsympathy.

My sincere condolences to Anne Gimenez and the Rock Church on your loss. You are all in my prayers. He left many sweet memories and a wonderful example of what it is to be Christlike across the nations.

May the Lord bless and keep Sister Anne and Brother John's family as he has graduated. Bro. John was very much apart of the Owen Clan family who migrated from Hawaii to be apart of Rock Church back in the 70's. From the cradle to the grave we have all been touched by Bro. John. Love to you all!
