Being Healthy

The Advancement Office of LeTourneau has decided to partake in a 90-day Wellness Challenge. The goal is to better our WHOLE selves - mind, body and soul. We are signing contracts and agree to 1) a daily devotional, quiet time, 2) read one non-work related book, 3) exercise three times a week and 4) eat a healthier diet. So, folks are giving up Starbucks or Grandy's or chocolate...and seeking moderation instead. Wish us luck! The winner gets a gift certificate to a nice restaurant...nooooo, just kidding. The winner gets something fun, like a spa day or golf lessons.

The LeTourneau Experience: So, what is the Advancement Office? Well in the Advancement Office we raise funds for the entire university. Tuition alone does not cover all the cost of having a world-class university, and therefore we at the Advancement Office work with individuals, foundations, corporations and governmental entities to ensure that LeTourneau recieves the monetary support it needs to provide the best education for our students.

How Can You Pray Today: Sometimes, we make food or body image our god. Pray for those that put these things before the one True God - that they may see themselves in his image and therefore care and tend for their minds, bodies and souls more carefully.

Recipe of the Day:
Cook two chicken breasts. Set aside. Mix 1/2 cup low-fat mayo, 1 cup low-fat sourcream, juice of three lemons and two tablespoons of fresh cut dill. Cube chicken breasts and add to mayo mixture. Serve over salad greens with good crusty bread. Enjoy! (Serves 4)
