EP 131, Melissa Robinson, A Frayed Knot

Imagine living in a place you love, in a community you adore, when you are told suddenly one day you can’t live there anymore. You are ushered out in a matter of days. That is what happened to Melissa Robinson and her family when they were working as field workers for a sending organization on a small island. The new government decided they were no longer welcome. Chris and Melissa Robinson and their three boys now live and work in Latvia. It is an interesting, exciting place that we don’t often hear about in the USA. Melissa has used her gift of playing guitar and singing Latvian music to invite their community members to attend house music concerts in their home. She shares the gospel in song and finds open doors for sharing Christ through music. She also volunteers for Lighthouse Latvia- an organization that cares for people who have aged out of their school system. Additionally, Melissa and two of her friends have collaborated to create a podcast together called "It’s Tea Time Somewhere". The Robinson family has a story of faithfulness even when questioning what is happening. It’s very applicable to all of us. #afrayedknotpodcast #itsteatimesomewherepodcast #latvia #questioning #trustHim
