In memoriam...
Around 4 pm Friday, 05 June, Bob Bosworth left this earth to meet his heavenly Father. Linda and her sister, Debbie, arrived in South Africa the following day. The funeral, conducted on Thursday, 11 June, was marked by joy and music for Bob's homecoming. Please pray for Stella, Linda and Debbie during this time of loss.
A life well lived...
All For God's Glory. Together with Stella, his South African-born wife, Bob served the Lord for 55 years in Africa and internationally, reaching thousands upon thousands for Christ. While Bob was an accomplished missionary, his greatest legacy was as a Christian, a husband and a father.
Bob and Stella began pioneer work in remote areas of Africa in 1952 . His large evangelistic efforts in urban areas resulted in many churches being planted, most notably in Zimbabwe . Those churches are still thriving today. Bob also planted Bible schools, trained evangelistic teams, began the MorningWatch ministry for early morning prayer, and carried the message of prayer to over 60 countries at a time of great renewal and worldwide missions activity. Recently, Bob and Stella became burdened for financially helping destitute pastors in Third-World countries. Bob is survived by his wife, Stella, and his two daughters, Linda and Debbie
I was blessed to have known Bob, and while he was not in the States very much his life had quite an impact on me. In your lifetime you can count on one hand the number of great men that have crossed your path, Bob was one of those men.

You are so right sir. I also got to meet Bob and Stella only a couple of times. The impact these two had on my life is nothing short of amazing. He was truly a great man, and I consider him to be a true father in Christ to me. The Lord bless you.

The late spiritual giant Rev Bob Bosworth came to Penang Island, Malaysia during the 1980s to conduct Revival and Early Morning Prayer. The meetings especially early morning Prayers was anointed of the Lord.The revival in Prayer is still burning brightly in Penang and Malaysia. The Revival and Prayer anointing shakes and breaks the spiritual lethargy amongst the churches. Indeed we thank and Praise God for sending Rev Bob to bless Penang and Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteBob Bosworth came to Shreveport LA several times between 1978-80 and I learned about Zimbabwean ministry and tragedies there. He spent about an hour talking with me and this turned my casual Christianity to one of earnest reality and so I went to Oral Roberts University for law school due to his down to earth hands on approach to applying the Gospel. I just found out this late of his passing, but wanted to tell the family that his life meant a lot to us at Rev. Jack Moore’s church, and his history with his dad FF Bosworth, and their friends Gordon Lindsey etc. Jack traveled with Branham and FF Bosworth for awhile and the stories Jack told were phenomenal. God Bless you all.
