Richard & Jessie Roberts
羅禮德牧師&吳建蘭師母
Richard and Jessie arrived in Taiwan March 24, 2004 along with their three children. Just a few years earlier they had began to feel in their hearts that the Lord was calling them. In the first three years they lived in Hsin Chuang which is a suburb of Taipei. They served with a couple of different churches and led a small bible study for children’s soccer team each week.
Soon they felt that the Lord was calling them deeper into a rural area along the northeastern coast of Taiwan. After settling in a small fishing village called Aodi they began to pray and look for ways to serve the Lord. As of March 2024 they have started several village churches, incorporated their ministry and developed many public charity programs for those living in the region.
Their children are now grown and two of them have already married. They also have five grandchildren. When asked how long do they think they will stay in Taiwan their reply is that they believe the Lord has told them, “Until the last day.” They added that they are not exactly sure what the Lord means by the last day but that they are content to stay.
