He has spent extensive time involved in missions, having lived in Germany (almost three years), in Indonesia (almost four years), and having made many mission trips to Mexico, a trip to Guatemala, and trips to other countries. He has done pastoral internships in inner city Detroit (summer, 1989) and in S. Central Los Angeles (’90 – ’91) and has worked in prison ministry.

From 2008-2016 his primary work has been as the Certified Administrator, owner, and operator of Mountain View Terrace, a state licensed “six-bed” Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) in Redlands, CA. Pastor Robertson closed his RCFE in 2016 and soon thereafter began attending Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church in Lake Arrowhead, CA. Robertson quickly fell in love with the Mt. Calvary congregation and Senior Pastor Randy Buecheler soon began putting him to work. In 2017 the congregation called Pastor Robertson as Associate Pastor on a part-time basis. Since then he served as chaplain at Mountains Community Hospital where he did weekly services, is the visitation pastor to hospitalized or shut-in congregation members, teaches Growth Group classes at Mt.
