Merry Christmas 2014

Dear Friends,

Once again we wish you all a Merry Christmas from afar.  This time it is from Africa.  We are nearing the half-way mark of our two year assignment to watch over the Ghana MTC.  Our charge was to develop African eyes.  As you can see by the photos, the people in Africa radiate goodness, love, and devotion.

We also take this opportunity to update you about our family.  The 5 J's and their wonderful spouses as well as the grandchildren were blessed in our absence for 3 years to the West Indies.  We pray for these blessings to continue as once again we are away from them.  They represent to us the meaning of what life is all about.

As you gather in your families this holiday season, we wish you and yours a most special Christmas.  May the love of Him who this season is all about, envelope you this season and always.

Merry Christmas

                                                 Reid and Diane Robison

ACQUIRING AFRICAN EYES

We love introducing the missionaries to the Ghana Temple.  

70% have not been before.

We both love teaching

Hurrah for Israel - future missionaries!

 

Our kids saw these pictures and asked us to please stay in the MTC from now on.

The joy is seen in their faces.
