Roger & Jan Orner

Roger and Jan both grew up overseas and met while attending Moody   Bible Institute.  They were married while Roger worked on his engineering degree and were privileged to have three children.  Following a career in management and involvement in lay ministry, early retirement led them into a ministry to global workers.
Their primary ministry focus is traveling to visit global workers, primarily in remote areas, with the goal of coming alongside and bringing encouragement in every facet of their lives. This could include joining them in their ministry, team building, debriefing, performing menial tasks every day life might overlooks, helping process everyday life and providing mentoring (personal and marriage) as needed but primarily living life with them.
Roger and Jan both had parents in ministry and have friends, siblings, children and other family members who are global workers.  Their involvement with global workers has included prayer, marriage enrichment, physical visits, team building, debriefing, and physical, spiritual, and emotional support.  Their home has been a home for global workers for short and extended stays.
The desire to continue ministry during retirement was clearly revealed through a visit alongside a couple/family in 2017 and has been confirmed many times since then. Following one trip we were told “Having people who understand the struggles we face living in a third world country and in a different culture encouraged us greatly. Being able to share their hearts and to be encouraged by folks who know what we are going through. Truly a blessing.”
A team shared “Thank you Jan and Roger for challenging us and helping us grow as a team and individually”.  Another family shared “We were so blessed to have you here for two weeks.  You quickly became friends.  You had so much to offer, a life of experience and wisdom, and anointed by the Holy Spirit for ministry.  You have a place in our hearts.  Thank you so much.”
Roger and Jan have three grown children and nine grandchildren living in Roanoke, VA, Irmo, SC and Siberia, Russia.

Statement of Faith

We believe the Bible to be the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
