Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

She immediately became the church pianist and also served with the Missionary Auxiliary, Willing Workers, Sunday School, Bible Study, Prayer Warrior, Discipleship Student, Women's Ministry and volunteer secretarial assistant. Sister Rogers remained a faithful member until on Wednesday, August 28, 2013, the Lord dispatched an Angel to the Holy Spirit Hospital, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, to escort his servant Home to receive her "Crown of Glory" joining her parents, husband and granddaughter, Maya Price.
