Rose's memoir was written by a brother in Bethlehem. Rose was raised as a Lutheran in Germany. He had an inclination to come to America since childhood. He arrived in Baltimore in 1758 and worked as a farmer in Maryland. He then became a soldier during the war. He was injured and deserted. He requested permission to stay in Bethlehem, it was first denied and then granted. He experienced an awakening on Good Friday 1765. After a short stay in Salem, North Carolina, he returned to Bethlehem with his wife where he spent his last years.
