Robert Rogers' wife and four children died in flash flood five years ago
Rogers chose not to "wallow in pity" and became a minister with a message of hope
His mission is to establish five orphanages in five continents to honor his family
One named after his wife, Melissa, exists in Russia, another planned in Rwanda
Do you know anyone who has turned tragedy into hope for other people? I thought this was so uplifting.

Well, that is a sad yet still heartwarming tale. It is glad to see that people are able to go on after terrible loss.
