Euro-Med Mission Catalyst Team

Bob serves as the Mission Catalyst Team Leader for Converge Euro-Med. Which implies that he provides leadership to a team - and what a team it is! Here are a few updates from our colleagues. Drew & Sarah Robertson are the newest members of our team. Drew serves as Ministry Catalyst for our region's Great Sea Initiative. In that role he connects with ministry leaders in the 20 nations that surround the Mediterranean Sea. He and Sarah served for nearly a decade in Lebanon with their three children.  Drew is c urrently   traveling within the region - first to Lebanon to connect with ministry partners in Tyre and Sidon.
