Major Robyn Black
Robyn is a Corps Leader at Auburn Salvos and an Area Officer. She grew up in Yagoona, the youngest of four kids. She became a social worker and her first job was at The Salvation Army Outreach Service in Kings Cross. This was her first contact with the Salvos. Robyn went along to a Salvo Church and was fascinated by the hats and the timbrels (true!).
But the real reason she joined The Salvation Army was a desire to be part of group of people who gave up everything to see people come to know Jesus. Robyn has lived to see the faithfulness of God through good and bad times. She’s married to Bob and has 2 lovely stepchildren and 2 delightful grandchildren. She’s been an Officer for 18 years and likes to keep life simple. It’s all about love … Jesus … and people!
