A time of learning...


This semester has brought Melissa and I many opportunities to grow and learn, not only in ministering to the students at Tennessee Tech University, but also about our relationship with each other. Marriage is a blessing that we are thanking God for daily and will continue learning about for the rest of our lives together. We are very much looking forward to our future!

The return home to my old almer mater at TTU has provided me with many flashback memories of the ways God worked in my own life while I attended. I am increasingly grateful for the chance I have to impact lives for God here now. I have spent most of my time building relationships with men from the New Dorm on campus. A group of about 10-14 students and I just finished up a four week Bible Study and are beginning another study on 1 John. Please pray that students will see a need for God's word in their life as the source of true heart change and also that God will allow me to continue to meet more people in this dorm.

Our Fall Retreat at the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee was successful in bringing many students to hear Truth, have fun, and meet new people. The theme of the retreat was Expectations. Mike Jackson, director of Campus Outreach at Tennessee Tech University was the speaker for the weekend. Students had fun learning how to swing dance, listening to talks, and getting the chance to discuss the things they were learning with their peers. Please pray that the students who went on this retreat will seek to understand the Gospel of Christ clearly and learn more in depth what it means for them personally.

We are deeply thankful for each of your prayers and all of your support.
Please pray for Melissa and I that we will continue to look to Jesus, the Author and Pefecter of our faith, in thankfulness for all the things He has done, is doing, and will do in our life!

In Him,
Eric and Melissa Robinson
