Nate Cook has been diagnosed with Grade 4 brain cancer, Glioblastoma.

While an initial surgery to remove part of the growing tumor was successful, Nate’s fight to survive has just begun. His treatment plan begins with weeks of targeted radiation therapy and chemotherapy, and treatment is expected to continue in some form indefinitely.

Nate and his wife Annaca have been overwhelmed by the love and support from their family and friends but are going to need additional help shouldering this burden.

Nate has spent his entire adult life serving others through Christian Family Camping. He grew up volunteering at Monadnock Christian Ministries, where he met his wife and eventually worked full-time as the Program Director. He has recently begun working at Berea, another well-known Christian camping organization. While in these positions of service he has helped countless young people grow in their faith, encouraged families, acted as a mentor and friend to staff and volunteers, and of course… told really bad jokes.

And it’s not time for the jokes to end.

Nate needs our help. He has always been there for us. Now is an opportunity for us to be there for him.

Please, help Nate and Annaca in this extremely difficult time so they can focus on what matters most.

Thank you,

Nate’s sister and brother in-law Manaseh and Stephen Galucki
