If you are reading this you will realize that we are currently trying to redo our website. Reshma and I landed in San Antonio Texas on the 23rd of March to visit with our dear friends Jim and Marilyn Chapman. They have been friends since the mid 1990's and we've grown in respect and love for one another over the years. I've been looking forward to visiting with them once again.
We also contacted Dr. & Pastor Ken & Cindy Hyatt, friends that I've known for over 25 years. We have been talking about the SWIM Alliance as they are part of the oversight of this facet of the ministry. We shared some ideas and insights gleaned from their years of ministry and found that we are on the same page when it comes to aligning ourselves with other like-minded ministries. Their wisdom and insight is invaluable. We will be working a lot in the future as the alliance grows even more.
Ken also helped me to begin the process of
re-doing this website. I have been looking for a
developer for some time without success and so I took the plunge
and decided to jump in and learn myself. Believe me when I
tell you that I will continue to improve the overall look and appeal
of our site as I continue to learn. Thank you in advance for
your patience and prayer (hopefully) in this regard.

Just yesterday the Lord blessed me with an answer to prayer.
I've needed dental work for some time now, and with the prohibitive
cost for those of us who are uninsured I was unable to have my
dental needs seen to. However, yesterday a couple who wanted
to bless our ministry in some way decided to pay for dental costs to
have the work done that I needed. What a blessing! And
what an Awesome God we serve! I am truly grateful and humbled
at the love expressed by these dear people and by the Lord.
I continue to expand my knowledge of web development. I've been working on this site now for about a week and I am encouraged by the progress. It is still not where we want it, but it is much more functional than what we had. Continue to pray for us as we move forward with this project. I've been able to upload two of five teaching Cd's and have run into a snag. Pray for wisdom for me to learn more in this area. We want to be ablt to offer some of our video messages in the near future.
We continue to put together our schedule for Australia, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. As you know, we travel by faith believing the Lord for the means to go where He leads. Pray with us in this season that we would continue to stand strong in faith for these needs to be met.
Tonight my precious wife Reshma is making us chicken curry. If you've never had her curry you are missing one of life's finer pleasures!!!! Jim and Marilyn are in for a real treat!
I will be talking to Destiny Image later today about our latest book that is in edit, "Promise of the Seventh Day". We are also working on a third book, "Gazing into Glory" which we hope to have finished by the end of this year.
For His Glory,
Bruce
