OUR MISSIONARIES:

Bob & Susie Gray

Bob grew up in Hart, Michigan, and attended the Wesleyan Church there. As a teen in the church youth group, he accepted God’s call into the ministry. He graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University in 1988 and from Asbury Seminary in 1992. While at Asbury Seminary he felt God was more specifically calling him to missions and theological training. Also while at Asbury he met his future wife, Susie Gross.

Susie grew up in London, Kentucky, where her father is a pastor in the Kentucky Mountain Bible Association. She and Bob were married in December 1993, a little after she graduated from Asbury Seminary.

They served for six years (1992-1998) as Assistant Pastor at Fountain City Wesleyan Church in Richmond, Indiana. Their first child, Elisabeth, was born there in 1998. For the first year of their term they studied Spanish in Costa Rica, then from there they went directly to Colombia to serve in the Wesleyan Bible Institute in Bogota (1999-2002). Their other two children, Aaron and Sarah, were born in Colombia in 2000 and 2001 respectively.

Because of political unrest in Colombia, they were reassigned as missionaries to Mexico for their second four-year term (2003-2007). They are currently serving as teachers and Bible School director in the Pilgrim Bible Institute in Puebla.
