<center><h3>HENRY LOEWEN</h3></center>

Henry Loewen died Jan .
19, 2008. "I was born
Nov. 8, 1934 in Filadelfia,
Paraguay to Peter and
Anna Loewen. At 14, I
accepted Jesus as Saviour
and was baptized at 18. I
became a member of Karlsruhe MB Church.
I attended Bible school and the theological
institute. At 23, I married Gertrud Schroeder.
I was given the opportunity to teach at the
Bible school for 10 years - the best of my life.
In 1967, we immigrated to Abbotsford, B.c.,
and joined King Road MB Church, where we
worked in leadership for 40 years. We were
blessed with a joyful family and attribute our
50 years of marriage to the grace of God. Yet,
the time comes when God says: Enough. Come
home! I leave behind my loving wife, Gertrud;
5 children and their spouses; 11 grandchildren;
4 siblings."
