Notes of encouragement for Nancy and tributes to Robert
Nancy, my heart breaks for you in this time of loss. I'm so sorry. I am praying that you specifically experience God's nearness to your heart, feeling His presence surround you, and are reminded of His goodness every day. My mother and I had the pleasure of meeting Robert on a trip to visit the Southern Seminary when I was deciding on what college to attend. On the drive down, we started listening to some of your teaching clips and were marveling at the story of how God brought you together. We walked into the on-campus hotel to check in for our visit, and my mom said "over there, that's Nancy's husband." We quickly checked in and went over to greet him. He was so kind and listened as we described how we had been listening to ROH on the drive down. He encouraged me in my college search, and made us both feel seen and heard. The next morning as he was eating breakfast, he came over to our table to say hello. I was feeling nervous about my tour and the meetings we had that day, and I was so grateful that he would take time to say hello again on what I'm sure was a busy day for him.
Nancy and family. My prayers are with you in the midst of this loss. May the Lord continue to give you peace. May you abide in Him, the One who can bring comfort and strengthen you. Thank you for being a testimony to God’s Goodness for all of us privileged to be part of your lives. Your extended family, the family of Christ, loves and lifts you up in prayer. It was a privilege to see your marriage, read the book you write together, and to be reminded and remind you back - Heaven Rules.
Thanks the God of all Grace that Robert a brave soldier in the Kingdom has entered Heaven by grace alone.
Gracias a ustedes por permitirme crecer en el conocimiento del Señor. Dios le bendice
Your life and ministry has blessed and challenged me to a deeper walk with Jesus. Praying for you during this time.
Nancy, I know you through your ministry work. You're such a beautiful soul. May the Lord provide you His deep comfort, care, and rest during this season of your life. You are a light in this world. May our Lord continue to use you mightily.
Dear Sister Nancy: Since I knew about your husband' s condition I Started praying for him and the hole family and when I read about he had gone Home I rejoiced but at the same time got sad for You and I asked God , He strengthens You in each aspect of Your life. We love You and Your ministry in God's work. Our prayers are with You and Robert's family .
Dear Nancy, Words fail me on this day of farewell to your beloved DH. The very last time I had the privilege of seeing and hearing you was during the ROH International Christmas (via Zoom), as you both flew off... to meet your loved ones and celebrate your 10th wedding anniversary. I will never forget Robert's words of encouragement and gratitude to us... so sweet and so full of love. He didn't even close his eyes during his prayer to the Father, so eager was he to look at us ‘face to face’. I cried when I learned that he had flown to Jesus, to the sound of that beautiful song “Come to Jesus” and its so fitting words... and I am sure, because the Bible tells us so, that he departed in peace, laugh's on Glory's side, and lives. (Ps. 16) Precious Nancy and dear Wolgemuth Family, may the Lord comfort your hearts deeply. Quote from Kevin DeYoung: “God will wipe away every tear from your eyes. Have you thought about that promise before? How close do you have to be to someone to wipe a tear from their eyes? You can't do it over email. You can't do it by text. You have to be face to face, close right there. It's how close God is to His people.” “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;” Revelation 21:4 Heaven rules. Jesus is near to the brokenhearted.
My dear Nancy On this day of remembering Robert I wish I could be there with you. I have loved knowing you and your relationship with Robert has been a lovely inspiration over these years. Yes, God catches our tears in a bottle. They are precious to Him. We couldn’t make it without His Gracious attention & care. My tears are flowing with yours today just as my joy is in knowing the future we share in the Heaven that Rules!
Nancy, Unfortunately, I cannot be with you today for the celebration of Robert’s life, as I was scheduled to speak this morning at a Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast in south Louisiana. Ironically, one of my last conversations with Robert was about Dr. Dobson’s memorial service. He spoke of his desire to support you and your thriving ministry, and I assured him he was making the right decision. I deeply cherished Robert’s friendship and will miss those early-morning texts—scripture paired with encouragement. Please know that you are in my prayers today. Tony Perkins
2 Corintios 1:3-5 NBLA Bendito sea el Dios y Padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Padre de misericordias y Dios de toda consolación, el cual nos consuela en todas nuestras tribulaciones, para que también nosotros podamos consolar a los que están en cualquier aflicción, dándoles el consuelo con que nosotros mismos somos consolados por Dios. Porque así como los sufrimientos de Cristo son nuestros en abundancia, así también abunda nuestro consuelo por medio de Cristo.
My husband and I read The book The Most Important Place on Earth. It revolutionized our thinking as raised little ones.
Nancy, though we did not have the privilege of meeting Robert in person, his writings and influence have impacted our lives, while amplifying the work God has begun in you and is continuing to do. “Finish Line” has been our most current book to discuss together. How we thank God for Robert’s godly legacy, and God’s presence with you as you grieve, but not without Hope. You are loved!greatly!
Nancy, As you are mourning, Robert, know your first Love, Jesus, is still and always at your side. In you singleness, in your marriage and now, as a widow, He is Faithful‼️
Praise the Lord for Robert Wolgemuth life! His books help me and encourage me to love Jesus and bless others. Precious Nancy, you are a Gift from Above to many women's in the world. I'm praying for you. Sending hugs, love and prayers.
Hoy quiero expresarle mi gratitud a Dios por tu vida, por ser el instrumento que sigue usando para traer esperanza , fe en el amor de Dios que ha sido derramado en nuestros corazones.❤️. En todos los valles que éstemos cruzando el nos dice: " No temas yo te ayudo..."
Estimada hermana en Cristo Jesús, te escribo unas cuántas palabras,es muy doloroso la pérdida de un ser querido, sabemos que está gozando del eterno descanso al lado de Nuestro Padre Amado, porque Estimado es a los ojos de Jehová la muerte de sus santos. Pido a mi Padre celestial que reconforte los corazones de la familia. Un abrazo a la distancia. Dios te siga bendiciendo grandemente y te de las fuerzas para seguir en el ministerio que te ha dado. Bendiciones desde lo Alto.
Dear Nancy, My deepest condolences as you grieve your husband. I pray the Lord to strengthen you and use this occasion to remind us of our fragility in this earthly body. Robert's life has encouraged and challenged many men to pursue God wholeheartedly. I met you and Robert in South Africa in 2019. I was still single but your marriage inspired me to be a God honouring wife. My husband lost his wife and I got married to him two years ago at age 53. I'm still learning to serve and honour my husband with joy. May the Lord fill you with peace and comfort you with His unending love.
Nancy, no imaginas cuanto aliento y animo traen a mi corazón tus programas, soy de Bolivia. Hoy le pido a Nuestro buen Dios, que su fuerza y paz sean sobre tu vida,con la certeza que en su tiempo volveras a abrazar fuerte a tu esposo. Gracias por bendecir tanto mi vida. Un especial abrazo desde el centro de Sudamérica - Bolivia
I'm sending a message from South Africa. I have followed your incredible testimony about your marriage and how much you loved and cared for each other over the years together. Nancy, may the Lord strengthen you and your dear family. You both have been such an inspiration to me.
