Hopelessness and despair may well up in our hearts and it can seem as though comfort is beyond our reach, but as Christ tells us, "Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted." Matt 5:4.
Your sadness is ours also; and we want you to know that you are not alone. Our Savior Jesus is with you and wants you to trust in him as you cope with your sorrow. Allow him in your heart so that he can heal your wounds and relieves your pain. Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled, ye believe in God, believe also in me.
We feel that he carried out his duties very well. He was humble, a faithful steward, gentle, peaceful, integrity.He lead and guided us in the right way to go. He was a teacher and preacher of the word God. He provided spiritual guidance. He preached all the word of God not holding any back and he relyed on the power of the HOLY SPIRIT. His life was devoted to Christ and he taught sound doctrine, was respectable and a good example to the church.
NO AMOUNT OF WORDS CAN CONVEY HOW SAD WE FEEL.
Sincerely Piney Grove Church Family &Friends

O', how i wanted to find you.
My husband was so, so, blessed to meet him at Grantham on Wednesday.
He had a couple of needs, my husband working on his hobby.
They had conversation, etc...
But when he told me at home, Dr. Roger's spirit had taken flight...his body was sleeping...Um!
I thank GOD for his expertise in Theology...
Serving the WA, as Dean of Theology, him teaching, last year Homoletics, i was blessed to be 1 of his students that graduated, received our Certificates.
He was a Master Instructor/Professor.
GOD chose a caring, kind, called & chosen Servant.
His Spirit is Sailing with the Eagles, not with the Cros.
Beautiful Lady, GOD be with you & JOY WILL COME IN THE MORNING.
ALL Family, GOD, BLESS you all!
Atkinson's, Cole's, Roger's, WA Families...we loved & respected Dr.Henry J. Roger's!!

He was kind, caring, considerate, and one of the the most humble people I have ever met. His smile could light up a room. It was evident that he was a born again, Holy Spirit-filled believer who really did want God to get the Glory out of his life. I am convinced that he will hear God say, "Well done!"
He will certainly be missed.

Henry did a wonderful job at Daddy's home going service. He did a wonderful job singing with the family choir at the Williams Family Reunion 2024. He was such a nice peron and he will surely be missed. ~ Charlene Dillard-McNeill

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. A memory etched in my mind of Henry is when he prayed and sang at our 2024 family reunion. It was with such excitement and fervently. Then I learned later he was a minister and I thought to myself no wonder. I'm glad to have been there this year and to have experienced that prayer by him. julie raynor
