Our Story
My name is
Bruce Robinson. My wife, Cindy, and I
would like to tell you a little about the vision we have for Heaven's
Stepping Stone Retreat and the events that led up to it.
Our
Grandson, Cameron "Tator" Robinson, went home to Heaven on August 9,
2010. He was 8 years old. He was in a fatal car
accident. We loved
him very much and so did all who knew him. He loved baseball
and
he loved people. Five months after the accident we decided to
have a
Memorial Family Fun Day at our house and receive donations to be
given
to Texarkana Baptist Children's Home in Tator's memory. We
raised
$7,700. In March 2012 we had the second Family Fun Day and
raised
$12,100 that we gave to the South Texas Children's Home. In
March 2013
the third Family Fun Day raised $12,367 and was given to Camp His
Way. The fourth Family Fun Day was in March 2014 and we
raised $14,104
that was given to Pine Springs Baptist Camp.
In the fall of 2012
I found out that I had kidney cancer and had surgery. All
cancer was
removed. In March of 2014, Cindy was diagnosed with breast
cancer and
surgery was a success. We give God the Glory! HE IS
GOOD ALL THE
TIME! During this time, I surrendered to God's calling to
preach. We
also felt led to reach out in a greater way to be servants to families
going through similar circumstances. We
want to build a place where families can come and spend time with their
children who are ill. A place to cook,
clean, provide games, a
fishing hole. A place to share God's love with
them. A place of
peace and love in a country setting. A place for us to labor
in love
until the Lord takes us home. Then the Lord will provide
someone else
to step in for a season.
We need your help to make it happen. We believe the Lord will
provide through you!
God Bless,
Bruce and
Cindy
