Letter from the Editor

May 2006 Issue

by Danielle Ellis

As the third part of our series on Provident Living, this issue of Desert Saints Magazine focuses on Physical Health. Since our bodies are the means through which our spirits must work and live on this earth, their functionality is key. If we allow our health to break down, we are unable to learn, grow, serve and find joy in all the ways the Lord has promised to us.

This issue is filled with tips, ideas and counsel on specific (easy!!) actions you and your family can begin incorporating into your lives today that will yield big results in the long run. From Lynn Price’s account of how she regained her youthful weight after 43 years of marriage (p. 6); to Steve Tracy’s counsel on how to avoid the “two week wonder” (p. 12); to helpful information on nutrition and exercise (p. 8); you will find plenty of fresh resolve to improve your family’s health. Since May is also Mother’s Day, we have an article from a young mother on remembering the sacred nature of parenting amid the chaos of raising young children (p. 14).

Here’s to your health!

All the best,

Editor@DesertSaintsMagazine.com
