Henry accepted Christ as Saviour at 9 at West Bank Bible Camp, where he later became a counsellor. Henry attended the Rosefarm school until Grade 8. He took Grades 9 and 10 and 4 terms of Bible classes at Herbert Bible School. He then lived and worked on the family farm, raising cattle and producing grain. Henry met Mary in 1950. After 3 years of indecipherable love letters, she consented to marry him. After the Greenfarm MB Church closed, Henry became a dedicated leader at Herbert MB Church, serving as a Sunday School teacher, deacon and member of the board for the Herbert Senior Home.
