Our Plane Tickets Have Been Purchased...

Picture

We are both excited and sad to announce that we have bought our plane tickets to the United States. We will leave Gran Canaria and land in the United States on June 10th. 
​
We are currently in the process of working towards becoming fully appointed missionaries and the next step in this process is an interview in Florida that we need to attend. For this reason we are coming back to Florida to continue this process to dedicate our entire lives to what God has called us to.... Missions.

Change and transition are always difficult and exciting. 

As missionary associates, we have two homes. Our hearts are always in two places. We have already announced to the international church(CLIC) here that our last Sunday will be June 6th and we are preparing the church for the return of senior pastors and fellow missionaries Steve and Dawn. We have been able to see God do incredible things here at CLIC and we are excited to see what God is going to do in the next few years.

So as we say our temporary goodbyes to our friends and ministry here in Gran Canaria, we are also preparing for our time in the United States and we are excited to see friends, family, supporters and churches. ​

LOOKING FOR WAYS TO PRAY FOR US?:
  1. We would ask that you would first pray for the International Church here in Las Palmas. Pray that God would draw each person closer to Him and allow this transition to be as smooth as possible. And that they would grow in unity.
  2. Second, we would ask that you pray for Steve and Dawn Robertson as they finish raising the funds needed to return. Pray that they are able to return to the island safely and that they would re-adjust quickly to the culture and life here in Las Palmas.
  3. Third we ask that you would pray for us. Agree with us that this transition will be smooth and that we will return to the United States safely as we beginning the long journey ahead of us to become fully appointed missionaries.

Hey Ms. Elizabeth,

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. It is very difficult saying our temporary goodbyes to the people here in Las Palmas but we know with Steve and Dawn coming that they will be in great hands. It will be great to see friends and family in Florida and we look forward to seeing you around Thanksgiving. Please keep us informed about the dates you arrive so that we can make sure to see you.

We look forward to seeing you soon,
Greg and Kita

We will be SO glad to see you, and pray that your step forward goes smoothly. You've said you're saying "Temporary Good-Bye's" there at CLIC. Does that mean you're intending or hoping to return there?

Love and prayers,
Sister Barbara

Hello Ms. Barbara! Thank you for your comment.

Yes, it is our intention to return here. We must come to the States for two reasons, one is that our term here has ended and in reality we have extended our teeth twice so that we could be here as long as we have been. The second is that I have begun the process to be credentialed through the Assemblies of God and I need to be in the States for various parts of the process. The return is bittersweet, but necessary. We trust that God will open the door for us to return here in his timing.

Blessings,
Greg and Kita

The steps of the righteous are ordered by the Lord and you are led by the Holy Spirit. Wow what an amazing adventure awaits you. You are so loved our prayers continue for His guidance and direction His correction and protection as you run the race to complete the course and hear the Master say WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANTS.
