Robinson's on the Road: February 2023 Prayer Letter

“Mobilizing the Church Through Short-term Mission Trips”

For some people winter can be a slow-paced, boring season, but not in our house. Noah and Titus have birthdays in the month of January. We now have a 7-year-old and an 11-year-old! Maggie is patiently waiting for her birthday later this month. Tiffanie and I are extremely grateful for our three kids. We have had the joy of watching them grow physically, spiritually, and academically. They have crossed over the first half of the school year and so far, they all maintain a 4.0 on their report card. Also, Noah has been cast as a main character in a play at the Apollo Theater near our home. It’s been quite a busy family month.

We have continued with a fruitful winter of preparing for mission trips. Our year kicked off with presenting a trip to Waynesboro Grace to Southern West Virginia. This group has started raising support and is excited to share Christ and make a Gospel-sized impact in Appalachia this summer. We have also been meeting with Boonsboro Bible Church in regard to their Spring mission trip. This trip is filled with new opportunities to share the Gospel. This team will have a community outreach, light construction at a drug rehab center with a Biblical foundation, lead a lady's Bible study, provide basic life skills for ladies at the rehab center, provide lunch for the local teachers, host a community paint night in which a devotional will be shared, and lots more! It’s going to be a GREAT trip filled with relational opportunities to make Christ known. We have also started to present a trip for the Fellowship of Bible Churches to Western Maryland and Morgan County West Virginia!

We did have to change our schedule in regard to our survey of Cortland New York. Our family battled illness and we are currently rescheduling the trip for the Spring season. We have LOTS of exciting things coming up in the next few weeks. A group of CiM missionaries is traveling to Welch WV to survey the area for future trips and ministry. Our family will also be ministering the entire month of February with our friends at Locust Valley Bible Church. We have a mission conference scheduled in March to Myrtle Beach and at the end of March we will be heading back down to Southern WV to take pictures and film video. This media will be used to create promotional material for our website, social media, and to present to local churches.

We had a huge praise to share with you. A friend of ours from Locust Valley Bible Church donated a van to our family. We are beyond thankful for this incredible gift of generosity. This gift provides our family with more time to continue to save for a lower mileage and affordable van for the future. Also please note that we will be changing our prayer letter updates. We will be mailing out our letters bimonthly and emailing them monthly (unless you prefer a monthly letter in the mail). Feel free to email us at mandtcim@gmail.com to let us know which way you prefer to receive your letters. We do have a few Sundays free. Let us know if you would like us to come in and share a mission update or share a message in the Word. We are thankful for your prayers and gifts. We are constantly amazed by your kindness and gracious spirit. We couldn’t do this without you!
