Olive Rogers helped many to dedicate their lives to Jehovah

One of them, Olive Rogers, became a regular pioneer in September 1951. Olive had lived with a man out of wedlock for 17 years. When she learned of Jehovah’s high standards, however, she left the man, who belatedly offered to marry her. She refused, was baptized, and joined the pioneer ranks, where she remained for almost 40 years until she became ill. Sister Rogers could be seen everywhere as she cheerfully combed the territory. Today, people tell glowing tales about this sister. Her indomitable spirit and tenacity enabled her to help many people, including big families, to dedicate their lives to Jehovah.
