Our Bishop

The Roses met when Nila was a guest of another student at the end-of-the-year banquet at Apostolic Bible Institute in St. Paul, Minnesota where Hugh was a student after graduating from Jewett High School in 1952. Nila graduated from Arsenal Technical High School in Indianapolis, IN and received her musical training from The Progressive Conservatory of Music in St. Louis, MO. Her musical talents are greatly appreciated not only by the entire Harrison Hills Church Family but also by guests who attend the church. The Roses were married at Calvary Tabernacle, Indianapolis, February 14, 1958 and recently celebrated their 50 wedding anniversary. They served Calvary Tabernacle and the Calvary Christian School in a number of capacities until 1973 when they accepted the call to Hugh’s home church, where they have remained until now. The Roses have four children: Hugh II, who with his wife Julia (Trapani) Rose, live in Jamestown, NC with their two sons, David Harper and Andrew Joseph; Stephanie, their eldest daughter, resides in Granger, IN with her three children Danielle, Collin and Gabrielle; David, their second son, lives in Powell, OH; and Dawnella, their youngest, and her husband Chris live in Dublin, OH. Dawnella comes to direct the church choir for special occasions. We highly recommend the Festival of Candlelighting and Carols that is held during the month of December.

You are always welcome at every service of the Harrison Hills Church. It is our prayer that you will find here a dedicated congregation of people who love the Lord Jesus Christ and are very eager to be a blessing to you. We hope to see you very soon at Harrison Hills Church! - Bishop Rose
