Happy Birthday, Nate. 18 years old last week!!!

March 22 at 1:20 am Michelle's sister, Patty, after a short battle with lung and brain cancer went home to be with Jesus at the age of 61. Pray for family and friends who need comfort in many ways at this time. The Word was clearly proclaimed at the funeral. Please pray that individuals will trust God with their life and death, and others will submit to His will in their lives.

God was gracious and we were able to enjoy an awesome vacation last week near Gatlinburg, TN. Friday we traveled the near 500 miles from Tennessee to the viewing in Indiana. Saturday we drove the 500+ miles home to Bradley. Sunday we helped our teens at Mount Tabor Baptist Church host a banquet for the Senior Citizens. We share these details to praise God, as He amazingly sustained us through this demanding time.

Praise the Lord for His sustaining grace.

Our Calendar
April Frantically pack the house
May 3 Pack the moving truck
May 4 Clean our apartment

Please pray that:
1. God will prepare us for ministry with the Counselors and Camp Crew at WWBC this summer.
2. God will prepare the hearts of those who will experience WWBC this year.
3. God will provide as we go on faith to serve at WWBC this summer. We will resume fund raising at the end of the summer.
4. God will provide churches and individuals who will commit to take our support level from 30% to 100%. Does He want you to join our team? Will you promise to pray about it?

We appreciate you,
~Bruce for
Michelle (getting more beautiful), Bryan (19), Nate (18), Caleb (14), Kaitie (10), and Seth (7)
