Robin Cowan Interview

Robin grew up in a believing home and remembers her mother praying with her every night. She heard the stories of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph many times. When she was 12 she went forward and prayed the sinners prayer with a counselor. When Robin was around 15 she took confirmation classes and was baptized, and started attending many youth activities at her church. She attended Seattle Pacific College and halfway through her junior year Robin was baptized in the Holy Spirit. After attending a Liberated Wailing Wall concert and seeing the Christ in the Passover demonstration from Jews for Jesus, a friend invited her to a Messianic congregation and Robin fell in love with the Jewish feasts and customs. Having already learned many Jewish folk dances, Robin found the dances very worshipful and fun. She began attending congregation Emmaus (now Beit Tikvah) in Bellevue every Shabbat. She has been involved in dance ministry and leadership ever sinceand also reads in Hebrew from the Torah scroll about once a month. Robin’s main career was working as an office manager in the public health laboratory in Seattle for over 40 years. She retired the end of 2017.
