About Bob

Facilitator: Bob Henson’s bio:

Bob Henson was born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi and raised in the Mississippi/Louisiana area. At the youthful age of 18, he entered the US Navy and completed 20 years of service. While stationed at the US territory of GUAM, he met his lovely wife, Vilma. They were married and later had 2 wonderful children.

In 1999, Bob retired from active military service and settled in Gulfport, Mississippi. Bob and Vilma served in various mission works while members of First International Baptist Church. In 2009, Bob & Vilma moved to Albany, Georgia due to Vilma’s federal career job opportunity. In 2022, they retired to their dream location of Hayesville, North Carolina. They became regular attendees of Awake America Prayer meetings in Hayesville and recently felt a calling to become facilitators for the 12th location in Franklin, North Carolina. This prayer meeting was established April 3, 2025.

Bob’s favorite scripture: Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. But, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your path.
