Cook's Short Order Update

Quarterly Prayer Letter Update (we need your physical address)

Reminder: we will eventually stop sending our Short Order Update from our (Michelle's and Bruce's) personal Facebook friends lists and update you through our facebook page at Cooks at Whispering Winds Bible Camp, our blog at brucecookfamily.blogspot.com, or email from bruce.cook@wwbccamp.com.

Our current plan is to be on site at Whispering Winds Bible Camp in Missouri around May 19 of this year. Before that, we need funds to move, Bruce needs to finish 3 tough classes for his graduate program, we need to finish the school year with the kids, we need to pack, and we have to clean our apartment. Praise the Lord for someone who sent us a gift to help cover our moving expenses. Our God is so gracious.

Praise the Lord! Bruce has been working with Brent at Mount Tabor Baptist Church to take his place on the sound system when we leave. Brent will be such a blessing to Mount Tabor.

After meeting with BIM's/WWBC's Interim Director Jay Penner recently, we have our responsibilities lined up for this summer. Bruce will supervise and disciple the Camp Crew and Counselors (high school and college age workers). Also, he will train those who will facilitate the outdoor climbing tower. We praise the Lord for the many hours he has gained in rappelling, high ropes, and high angle rescue in our time at Appalachian Bible College.

As Summer Staff we are stepping out in faith that God will supply our needs. Currently we are at 30%. The BIM Board of Directors is requiring us to resume support-raising at the end of the summer. We praise the Lord for their willingness to let us serve for the summer. Can't wait!!!

Please pray that:
1. God will give us grace in the months ahead as Bruce finishes his graduate studies, we pack to move, we continue our responsibilities here in West Virginia till we move.
2. God will provide the funds to make the move on May 19.
3. 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?

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