Have you heard...

Doyle Dykes came to the Belcher Center this past Friday. He rocked the house...he peppered in a little Coldplay, a little U2, a little soul and a little funk. It was great! At one point or another, we all wondered: how DOES he make the guitar do THAT? It was unbelievable. If you are not familiar with Doyle, you need to check him out! (www.doyledykes.com)

Doyle’s daughter, Haley also took to the stage and tore the roof off! Playing the mandolin like it was nobody's business she also possesses a throaty voice reminiscent of the dames of the 30s and 40s. She also writes her own songs and the feeling behind every lyric draws you in. Check out Haley and her skills at www.haleymusic.net.

How can you pray today? Pray that we be reminded that God has gifted us uniquely and that we are to pursue those gifts – sacrificing time and energy to practice more, to get better, to become the best we can be and all to his Glory.

LETU Parent Weekend

LeTourneau parents and family came for a brief visit this past weekend. We had some rain on Saturday but most of it held off until the night. On Saturday morning, the parents met at the Speer Chapel for a prayer and praise service. We were led in workship by Benjamin Muir, who played the guitar beautifully. (Benjamin will be a LeTourneau freshman next year! YAY!!!) It was peaceful to pray together and to know that these parents, grandparents and siblings remember LeTourneau in their prayers on a daily basis! Next year's Parent & Family Weekend is on Feb. 13 and 14, 2008.

How Can you Pray Today: Please continue to pray for the safety of our students and campus - both spiritual and physical safety.
