Dave Roever is a hero of the faith, called to ministry as a teen and a decorated Vietnam veteran of solid character.  At the height of the Vietnam War, he joined the U.S. Navy and served as a river boat gunner in the elite Brown Water Black Beret - until tragedy occurred.  His survival and ensuing life with his faithful wife at his side are miraculous.

 

A superb multi-generational speaker, Dave Roever travels the globe sharing his gripping testimony with engaging humor, imparting hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and delivering the Word of God with convincing power.  God uses Dave's ministry in churches, crusades, youth and men's conventions, and in the "marketplace" - public schools, business conventions and with the U.S. military world-wide including war zones such as Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan.  

 

Mr. Roever and team reach out to the people of Vietnam via multiple projects.  Since 2007, at the organization's Eagles Summit Ranch facilities in Westcliffe, Colorado and Junction, Texas, and at other excellent facilities, Dave Roever and his team help to restore hope, provide keys for success, and train today's wounded warriors to have meaningful futures or for Christian ministry through Operation Warrior RECONnect.
