To India in 1888 from Louisville,

Native Place: United States of America

Place of Vision: India

Soon she was able to take over the

Supervision of the girls' school.

It had always been her great desire

That the people of India should understand

The importance of education and derive

Benefits from it. In school,

She made Bible classes a part of each day's

Program.

This angered some of the Hindu parents who

Withdrew their daughters from the school.

During the severe famine in the early 1890s,

Robinson went to Mahoba to assist

With famine relief work.

Instead of taking up the assigned vacation,

She spent the hot season of 1892

In this emergency service.

Sue Robinson ministry in India

Given her frail health, she was completely

Drained of her energy, and she herself needed

Some rest. So, she went to the hills

For rest and recuperation. But then the

Cholera epidemic struck the Harda region.

Concerned for the welfare of her beloved

Girls, she immediately started back

To Harda before completely recovering.

While looking after the Cholera patients,

She contracted the disease and finally went

To be with the Lord.

Sue Robinson was the first of missionaries of

The 'Disciples of Christ' organization

To die in India. She died at the mission

Station just as she wanted it

To be. From childhood, she had wanted

To be a missionary, and when someone

Discouraged her, referring to her frail

Health, she used to say that she would rather

Give her life in service in a far land than

Never to go at all.

Beloved, are you willing to go

To the far lands leaving the comforts of your

Homeland?

“Lord, help me to love you and the ministry

More than my physical comforts.

Amen!”
