MINISTRY FOCUS

David and Daniela serve as Cadence Associate Field Staff in support of the Cadence hospitality ministry in Wiesbaden, Germany. David grew up in a Navy family and then served in the U.S. Army. They both feel privileged to share their lives, home, and faith with the military community. The Bruces desire to show the love of Jesus to and disciple young men and women stationed at U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden.

FAITH

David came to know the Lord through a retired Navy dentist, one of many Sailors who benefitted from a Cadence ministry (then called Overseas Christian Servicemen’s Center) many years ago in the Philippines. Daniela came to faith in Jesus while living in Georgia through a small church community that showed her the love of Christ and the difference between religion and a personal relationship with Jesus. David and Daniela have come to a maturity in faith that has fostered a heart for young service members and church leaders through pastoral care.

FAMILY

David traces his family roots back to Virginia, and Daniela is a native-born German from Rheinland Pfalz. They met in Baumholder, Germany, during one of David’s duty assignments and have been married since 1995. They have three boys and a dog.
