The Journey of Sam and Connie Rogers
Sam Rogers and his high school sweetheart, Connie, have shared a remarkable journey since tying the knot over three decades ago. Their love story, which began in the halls of high school, has blossomed into a family of four children and five delightful grandchildren.
In 1991, shortly after their wedding, Sam and Connie co-founded Silent Partner Security, a venture that has since expanded nationwide. Their hard work and dedication, coupled with the blessings they received, fueled the company's success.
In 2014, following their hearts and seeking spiritual growth, Sam and Connie relocated to Colorado to enroll at Charis Bible College. Their time at the college was transformative, leading them to a new calling after graduation.
Rather than establishing another traditional church, Sam and Connie were inspired to create a movement centered around the Grace Message. In late 2018, they founded Generation Grace in a refurbished 150-year-old barn. Initially, they met on Monday nights, but soon felt a divine call to expand.
In June 2020, Sam and Connie were ordained by Andrew Wommack Ministries. During a prayer with Andrew, they received a prophetic message foreseeing Generation Grace's significant impact both locally and globally through their acts of generosity.
In 2020, they completed the "Meeting Barn," transforming the original barn into a space for the Kids Ministry. This expansion allowed them to reach more children and youth with their message. By 2022, another divine message led them to construct the "Legacy Barn," where they held their first service in December 2024, attracting over 200 attendees. With a larger venue, they have invested over four million dollars into building the kingdom of God, witnessing numerous miracles and supernatural transformations through the Holy Spirit.
The success of Generation Grace relies on spreading God's unwavering love and incredible grace. They invite others to join them on this extraordinary adventure and become part of something truly special.
Join Sam and Connie Rogers in their mission to transform lives through the power of grace and be a part of the growing community of Generation Grace.

Ivan Ortega
Missions Director
Ivan and Dinanyeli were married in 2017 and are parents to their beautiful daughter Danna. When Danna was born, Ivan began attending Charis Bible College with the intent of learning how to be a good father. Since graduating, Ivan, Dinanyeli, and Danna have learned about the unconditional love and grace of God through relationship with Him. God is good and He loves you as He loves Jesus! These words from Jesus Himself in John 17:23 changed their lives forever - this is the message God put in their hearts to share. In 2022, God opened the doors to begin a children’s ministry in the Dominican Republic where there are now over 300 children enrolled. Every week the children are fed and taught about the love of God and their identity in Christ. Many friends, family members, and parents of these children are coming to know Jesus through them. The ministry also operates in a public school as well as in a children’s hospital in the city of Santiago. In partnership with Ambassadors to the Nations, the Good News is being taken to Dominican Republic and to all the world. We all have a unique part in the Great Co-Mission and this is the call God has put in their hearts - His love to His people.
