. Most of all, we hope you support our ministry by prayer. The Faith section of our hometown newspaper, Fayetteville Observer, had a nice article published on April 3, 2009. Hope you enjoy it!
We've added a new feature to this web site! Listen to an interview between Bruce and Dr. David Stevens, the host of Christian Doctors' Digest. It was published in May, 2009 and they have graciously given permission for it to be available here.
Recently, we had a real scare. An x-ray of Bruce's arm suggested the possibility of metastatic cancer. We praise God that the workup was negative. but we thought you still might like to hear the address given to his crewmates on the Africa Mercy the day after he had received the news of the possibility of cancer.
On March 28, Bruce was inducted into the Medical Missions Hall of Fame. Here is a video that was presented that night, followed by Bruce's acceptance of the award.

Searching for Significance |
 |
 |
 |
|
Some have said that mid-life crisis is the switch from a search for success to a search for significance. We would agree. Why else would a surgeon-entrepeneur and an accountant stop chasing the "good life" in a hope to find a way of living where "Well done, good and faithful servant" is the highest reward?
Since his retirement in December of 1997 from the position of the senior partner of his general surgical practice, Bruce and Micky have spent much of each year as short-term missionaries with the goal of serving God by serving career missionaries. Bruce gives both medical and administrative help and Micky uses her experience as an accountant/controller to help wherever they are called to go. <Read more> |
