The Robinson Family

1. Praise for a warm and encouraging visit with Ben before he deployed to Afghanistan. Ben arrived safely and is transitioning into his new role as a supply officer. The deployment is for nine months. Please pray for the safety of the entire task force and for good working relations with the other forces whom they are coordinating efforts.

2. Praise that Reinhold is continuing to experience healing after a period of deep burnout in ministry.

3. Praise that a very difficult person on the Elder board of Sebastian’s church has resigned. Praise for David, a young man of great potential and good character, who was elected to fill this position. Pray for Sebastian’s wisdom and physical strength. The church is growing and this places even greater demands on his time. Pray that he would be Spirit-directed as he responds to these needs.

1. Praise for a spiritually refreshing time in Colorado as we met with colleagues at the headquarters of Greater Europe Mission. Praise for the meaningful conversations and for the team that served each of us during our Home Ministry Renewal.

2. Praise for a letter from a German pastor who is growing through a period of deep burnout in ministry. Pray for continued healing in Reinhold’s life and for wisdom as he seeks to discern what the next steps for his life, family and ministry should be.

3. Praise for safety during Ben’s recent training in California. He is now in Savannah, Georgia (Ft. Stewart) preparing to deploy in early February. Pray for us as we travel to see him, help him wrap up his affairs and say “goodbye”. This tour of duty is for nine months.
