The Robinsons will spend the first three weeks of August at home in England. The first week a missionary from Ireland will come for a visit. Years ago she was a young member of the Robinson's first church plant who went to Bible college and is now serving the Lord.
Bruce and Bonnie will also be preparing for a trip to the USA covering most of the autumn. Their mission, International Gospel Outreach (Minnesota), is undergoing some change due to the current president resigning. Bruce has been asked to find new leadership and implement a satisfactory transition to an enlarged board of directors.
In addition, the Robinsons will participate in the annual meeting of Partners In Evangelism International in Chicago, contribute to a church mission conference in Michigan and confer with several supporting individuals and churches.
Bruce and Bonnie spent time during June with a church that is approximately 13 years old. The building was originally funded by an American church. Through the years the local Christians have experienced some difficulty in vision, funding and leadership. Understandably there have been some discouraging moments. Now they have a good pastor and leadership team. PIEI (Partners In Evangelism International) asked us to spend time with the people to establish a personal relationship so as to be of benefit as they forged their way ahead. One of the couples on the leadership team is financially helped through PIEI so the project in Malaga becomes part of our responsibility (and privilege and joy!).
