Cook's Short Order Update

Genesis 1:29 Then God said, “I now give you every seed- bearing plant on the face of the entire earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food." I think this verse is so incredible. God could have provided something boring with full nutrition and no flavor that would enable us to live in health. Instead, He provided immense variety and flavor and texture, just because he cares about us!

We are done with summer camp at Camp David of the Ozarks. Once we get an end-of-summer-sneaking-into-fall prayer letter out, we will be more detailed on how God has worked and blessed. Right now we are at Camp David, "watching" the facilities while others are getting a much needed break. Thank you for praying for us through out this summer. It was evident as we ran out of strength and God sustained us that others were before God on our benefit.

Nate is staying home this year, to work, and serve with us at New Harmony Church. Pray for God's leading and provisions as he seeks to obey his Savior.

Home school will be starting in a few weeks, and Bruce is looking at some work opportunities as we seek what God has ahead for us. Pray for our hearts to be open to His directions.

With much love and appreciation,

Bruce
