The Ultimate Reality Self-Revealed

​Henry Martens


About the Author


Picture
Both Henry Martens and his wife, Elma, have shared a living passion of caring for all of God’s creation, including people with all their needs—physical and spiritual. It is therefore no surprise that, as a labor of love, they spent many years helping to establish a Bible camp, a Christian nature interpretive center, and the Pembina Valley Provincial Park in the Pembina Valley of Southern Manitoba.
After dropping out of school as a teenager, Henry returned to school and earned his BA, BEd, and MEd degrees from the University of Manitoba. His first teaching assignment was at a remote First Nations community in Northern Manitoba. When Henry and Elma’s children reached school age, the family returned to Southern Manitoba, where Henry continued his teaching career.
​
Henry has authored two books, Footprints of Hope and The Valley: My Quest for the Ultimate Reality, both written to specifically augment and support the Pembina Valley Interpretive Center.
​
Both Henry and Elma have been very active in their local church. Henry has served as assistant pastor and as pastor. They each emphasize that God has given them a wonderful life; none of it was of their own doing. They have three children and eight grandchildren.
