Henry Rojas

Henry Rojas is a popular speaker and gifted spiritual director, currently serving as spiritual director at Spirit in the Desert. His unique brand of humor and insight has helped individuals and groups make transformational change for more than 20 years. Henry was the creator behind the most recognized of all NBA mascots, “The Gorilla” of the Phoenix Suns. His engaging parody, dancing rhythm and visual comedy is still unrivaled in sports and won him a place in the Hall of Fame. He is equally known for walking away at the peak of his popularity to explore his true identity and intrinsic worth. Today, unmasked, Henry has become a powerful voice and resource for recovering performers, addicts, and leaders who have been called to a journey of inner freedom.

Catch Henry every Wednesday online and in person the first Wednesday of the month at Wednesday Respite, a contemplative service including an insightful Touchpoint, inspiring music and Holy Communion.

Together with Jerry Ehmann, Henry facilitates the Balance in Recovery Retreat at Spirit in March, 2024.
