"And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen." (Phil. 4:19-20).
Santiago Theological Seminary

Foundations for Reformation of our Faith: Why the Five Solas Still Matter Today

Bruce wrote the above book for the STS students and other church leaders. His book manuscript is currently being reviewed by a publisher that also has a Spanish language division. Pray for its publication and eventual translation to Spanish.
REF Conference
Thank you for your prayers for our mission's conference in Birmingham, AL in July. It was a great blessing to hear the great preaching, to fellowship with like-minded missionaries, and to meet with partners on the way there and back.
"Show hospitality to one another without grumbling."
(1 Peter 4:9).

Kaleah Starting towards Adoption!

Praise God that Kaleah's birth mother has agreed to give up her parental rights, opening the door for us to adopt her. We are excited about bringing her into our family officially, as we have already been her foster parents for over 15 months. Recently Kaleah has learned to walk. Finalizing adoption will take perhaps 6-12  months.

Liberian Student to Start Seminary

Robert Luqui, a church planter and graduate of African Bible College Univ. in Liberia, is planning on starting seminary in January in Philadelphia. Robert came to know the Lord in 2006 while Bruce preached at the new church plant of Rock Spring Presbyterian Church in Monrovia. Bruce has been helping him with arrangements and plans to be equipped for training church planters in Liberia.
