Graca e paz:
Paul, the old spiritual warrior sends this double greeting to several
churches. "Grace to the brethren and peace from God and our Lord Jesus
Christ" are the words recorded in Romans 1:7, God's unmerited favor to
God*s "saints" and peace from the "King of Peace". How wonderful and conforting are these words to us who know the protection and comfort of a loving God. Should not our hearts burst with expectation of God^s provision and will in our lives. God, who created the universe is inter ested in me particularly as a follower of Jesus. Wow it*s almost too much for me to comprehend. In whatever language you may see these words grace and peace, the meaning is the same.
The Board of Trustees of International Christian University met on January 16 and 17th on the premises of the College of World Mission.
of the meeting was to choose a new president for the College of World Mis sion. By unanimous decision William E. Loft Sr. was chosen. An Instal

prayers and cooperation and best wishes accompany Bill in his new position.
The Board also decided to pursue immediately inmigration approval by the U.S. Government for the acceptance of foreign students. Strong suggestions indicated the feasibility of making the undergraduate program principally Spanish speaking. This doesn't mean that English speaking students will
be turned away. A year of concentrated missions courses will be offered

will be honored and souls won and churches established. We have half of

One of the highlights of my trip to the states was being able to see Dave. It had been over a year since I had seen him. He looked good and we shared four days together. He is thinking of just staying in the Army till August 1976. Keep praying for him that God will continue to lead and protect him.

Brethren, may I recommend to you highly that missionaries be encouraged to en gage in intensive Language Study in preparation for their given field of service. The Spanish Language Institute in San Jos6 is excellent for Spanish - speaking countries.
What is the Robison Family doing now? Well, I am teaching at the College and beginning to reach out in Spanish witnessing. Sarah helps out in the Library, grade
school or wherever needed, Mary Lou is studying.
Please pray with us as God indicates His will for us in the future. There are three possibilities that are being considered. We want to be utilized for God to the
utmost.

SPECIAL
BULLETIN
March 1, 1975
Dear Faithful Supporters, The Robison Family will be moving to Johnson Bible College the first part of August of this year. I have been extended an invita tion to become the missions professor of JBC at that time and I have accepted the invitation. I ask your prayers for us as we move into this new phase of the ministry for Christ.
^oAaJt
On July 26 of this year we will complete a three-year term of service in the San Juan area. In beginning, I agreed, along with the other founders of International Christian University to stay with this new project at least for the first three years. This I have done. Pray for the Administration, Faculty, Staff and Student body of the College of World Mission. Particularly pray for Bill Loft, the new President of C.W.M. My leaving here in August no way affects my total support of ths program in Puerto Rico.
I ask you to please continue your present support of the Robison Family through July of this year. We will continue our mission outreach during these next five months in Puerto Rico.
There will be more news and further explanation of this de cision in the next three Robison Reports. If you have any further

to J.B.C.
Why go to Johnson? In all of the mission work that I have under taken since 1954 the primary question that I tried to answer was. Where
does the Lord want me now? Also I asked. What can I do to multiply my
efforts to the best advantage? I feel that going to Johnson is where my efforts can be multiplied the best. This is where God has lead me.

Dear Brethren:
"Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God^ through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our in troduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God." Rom 5:1,2. This passage makes my mind boggle.
We are justified with God; we have peace, not maybe or might have it, we have it; we have been introduced Into this grace; then he says, "may we
exult in hope of the glory of God." Rejoice with me and praise God with

Brethren, we will need extra help as we move to Tennessee. Please continue your faithfulness to us during these last two months-through July. We anticipate that the move plus airfare and shipping will come to
$1,200. Any help that you want to send will be appreciated. During these
years all of you have made up a special part of the Robison Family. This has been one of the pillars of our ministry.
