Mission Statement
Heaven's Roll Call's main purpose is to share the love of Jesus by offering faith-filled poems of hope, the written word of God through Bible scripture, a listening ear and by the provision of needed material support in cases of acute need. This will be accomplished through the Heaven's Roll Call web pages, email or letter correspondence, and verbal communication either in person or over the telephone.
Purpose
"Heaven's Roll Call" is a Christian 501 (c) 3 nonprofit ministry who uses Christian inspirational poems and inspirational Bible verses to help those grieving the loss of a loved one. It's main purpose is to let you know that God loves you and that there are still people in this world who care about the pain you're going through and want to help you through it. After heartache, sickness, or the loss of a loved one, God’s word in the form of an inspirational poem may bring you comfort in the days ahead. Some of the Christian poems on the following pages are also fitting for funerals/memorials and may be used with written persmission.
About Me
The ministry "Heaven's Roll Call" officially came into being on October 2nd, 2001. (October 2 was also the day that my only brother, Douglas Roy Lueck, was killed in Vietnam in 1966.) Although at that time my intent was to sell my Christian inspirational poems and my photos with a inspirational Bible verse, it didn't seem right to ask someone to pay for God's comforting words during their time of heartache. I usually ended up giving away the poem and letting them know that God writes all of them and I am only His messenger. “Heaven’s Roll Call” is derived from looking through the obituaries on Sunday mornings. For years I would go through the obituaries and send an inspirational poem to a family who lost a loved one with a note saying that even strangers care. The word obituary seemed so cold and didn't truly describe the long list of names; so I prayed and asked God for a more deserving name. Upon awakening the next morning, "Heaven's Roll Call" was on my lips. What a better way to describe the list of those who have gone ahead of us to heaven! To me, these pages are a place of HONOR. The next time you see the obituary section, remember - they are a list of God's "Gold Medal" winners or "Heaven's Roll Call."
