The Share Jesus International founder and celebrated evangelist passed away in November after being diagnosed with skin cancer earlier in June 2007.
Family, close friends and colleagues took to the stage to share their fondest - and funniest - memories of the evangelist during a nearly three hour celebration hosted by his sons, Chris and Andy Frost, who have since taken over leadership of Share Jesus.
Chris set the tone for the evening when he said, "Today is a time of celebration of what God did through our dad," before the entire congregation joined in rapturous worship with the opening hymn "Carry me".
The President of the Methodist Conference, the Rev Martyn Atkins, described Rob in a heartfelt address as a modern-day version of John Wesley, a "trailblazer" who "changed the methods of evangelism and mission but always with the heart of honouring Christ".
Rev Frost founded Share Jesus International in 1986 with a vision to unite Christians of all denominations in bringing Jesus to the nation, and he remained a firm favourite in Christian media, presenting Frost on Sunday and the current affairs panel discussion Burning Questions on Premier Radio, as well as The Frost Art Show on GodTV.
One of his most celebrated achievements remains the founding of the Easter People Conference, which started with a few hundred Christians in a holiday camp in 1988 and grew to attract more than 6,000 Christians of all denominations by the time of the last Easter People in April, 2007, where Rob preached.Rob was a highly intelligent, inquisitive presenter but with a pastor's heart.

Marian Izzard, Deputy Director of Share Jesus, looked back with humour at the times she shared with Rev Frost, organising events such as Easter People and partaking in his well known passion for late night curries and cappuccinos.
"He had this annoying habit of changing everything at the last minute and wondering why I was stressed!" she laughed, to the nods and smiles of many in the audience whose lives had been touched by Rev Frost.
