Lamar University Dance Marathon: Cardinals for the Kids

LU Dance Marathon Total Reveal

Lamar University Dance Marathon (LUDM) hosted their first event at the end of 2017. The evening wrapped up Lamar University’s homecoming week by celebrating the students who helped raise money for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals throughout the year.

Participants created personal fundraising pages on LUDM’s website at the beginning of the year and asked friends and family members to donate. After visiting CHRISTUS Southeast Texas St. Elizabeth last fall, Lamar University Dance Marathon’s executive members made it their goal to raise enough money to revive St. Elizabeth’s pediatric playroom with new toys and furniture. LUDM wanted the children staying in the hospital to have a fresh space where they could play and feel like kids instead of patients.

At the Lamar University Dance Marathon event, students were met with an event T-shirt at the door and spent the evening dancing to celebrate their success. Chick-fil-A provided dinner and there were plenty of door prizes to be won from Nothing Bundt Cakes packages to an Apple Watch. The Ryan White Award for the Top Fundraising Team went to Alpha Tau Omega for bringing in over $1,300! One of their team members, Christian Dick, went above and beyond by raising over $800 – more than doubling most other students’ totals. At the end of the evening, LUDM students took the stage to announce the final amount they would be donating to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals for St. Elizabeth’s pediatric playroom. The Lamar University students were thrilled to reveal a grand total of $4,730!

Statue Dedication

marsha

The CHRISTUS Southeast Texas Foundation worked with artist and sculptor Marsha Elmore, originally from Southeast Texas, to acquire a 7 ft. bronze statue of Jesus Christ. The life size bronze of Jesus Christ is Marsha’s latest commission and represents a spiritual pinnacle for her. She worked on this statue for two years, the longest she has worked on any piece of art. On display near the front entrance of the hospital, this statue will now be a constant reminder of the CHRISTUS mission – extending the healing ministry of Jesus Christ. This statue will offer peace, hope, and healing to all who enter the doors of CHRISTUS Southeast Texas St. Elizabeth.

The dedication ceremony was held on Tuesday, October 11 with CHRISTUS administration, associates, and Sisters, along with community members and the media. The ceremony was a beautiful and spiritual affair, with a blessing of the statue and addresses made by CEO Paul Trevino, Foundation President Ivy Pate, and Sculptor Marsha Elmore.

“This statue of Jesus Christ is much more than a piece of art. It is a part of Marsha’s ministry. And it is now a part of the ministry of CHRISTUS, where we are focused on offering a spiritual approach to health care,” said Foundation President Ivy Pate.

Ms. Elmore is the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. D.M. English. Dr. Dudley English practiced medicine in Beaumont until he retired in 1979. She was married to Dale Elmore and they had three children: Teak Elmore, Meg Elmore Clark, and Josh Elmore. Marsha, Dale, and their family moved to Hunt, Texas in 1979 to run Camp Waldemar, a Christian-based all girls’ camp. Her “second” career in sculpting has been commission based, along with her work in private collections, six of which are located at the Beaumont Court House.
