Praise the Lord!!! Sarah, one of our teens, became God's child this weekend! Two more friends have joined our team, taking our support to about 35%. My boss has offered to move a van load of stuff to our new home. God bless you Jay! We're finding it hard to focus on enjoying our last few days in West Virginia while we focus on preparing to leave. We have cleaned the basement, emptied the attic, and now focus on packing each room. We invite each of you to join us at Mount Tabor Baptist Church, Beckley, WV as we are commissioned as missionaries of MTBC. It will be an honor to see you there.
Our Calendar
Now Frantically pack the house
May 2 Commissioning Service at MTBC, 11am
May 3 Pack the moving truck
May 4 Clean our apartment
May 5 Move to Missouri
May 6 Unload the truck
May 7 Sleep for a while
Please pray that:
1. God will protect and help Sarah grow (a brand new Christian).
2. God will prepare us for ministry with the Counselors and Camp Crew at WWBC this summer.
3. God will prepare the hearts of those who will experience WWBC this year.
4. God will provide as we go on faith to serve at WWBC this summer.
5. God will provide churches and individuals who will commit to take our support level from 35% to 100%. Will you ask Him if He wants you to join our team?
We appreciate you,
~Bruce for
Michelle (getting more beautiful), Bryan (19), Nate (18), Caleb (14), Kaitie (10), and Seth (7)

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

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?

Quarterly Prayer Letter Update (we need your physical address)
Bible Impact Ministries, our mission agency, is remodeling their website and other technical stuff. The "other technical stuff' involves a new email address for me. It is:
bruce.cook@bibleimpact.org
My personal address is brucelcook@gmail.com. Both of these addresses get to me just the same.
Praise the Lord! We were able to get a moving truck for 5 days for under $500. Who'da thunk you could bargain with these people... Our next few weeks are going to be busy. Pray for patience for us to set a godly example in front of our kids of how to work through the circumstances God allows. Next week we are taking a few days to get away as a family before moving. Don't you feel sorry for us??
Our Calendar
March 19 Lock-in with our teens at Mount Tabor Baptist Church
March 28 Big youth activity at Mount Tabor
April Frantically pack the house
May 3 Pack the moving truck
May 4 Clean our apartment
May 5 Move to Missouri
May 6 Unload the truck
May 7 Sleep for a while
Please pray that:
1. God will prepare us for ministry with the Counselors and Camp Crew at WWBC this summer.
2. God will begin preparing the hearts of the many kids 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? $10-$20 a month is such a help.
Sorry this is not quite a SHORT Short Order Update. So much going on.
