‘Monday Munchers’ Vegetarian Supper Club Returns to Hastings!

Friday, January 6th, 2012

On February 13th, the ‘Monday Munchers’ Vegetarian Supper Club will resume its series of vegetarian cooking classes after taking their summer-long break. The ‘Monday Munchers’, lead by Julie Wise, focuses largely on demonstrating how to prepare delicious healthful vegetarian dishes, as well as giving nuggets on nutrition and other more general health issues.

A distinguishing mark of the club is the emphasis on sharing together and celebrating abundant life. It is known for being an extremely welcoming and friendly environment. Admission is always free, and there is always plenty of good food to taste. “Just bring an appetite and a smile,” said supper club coordinator Julie Wise.

The ‘Monday Munchers’ is based at the Hastings S.D.A. Fellowship Room, located at 888 Terry Lane (off of Star School Road) in Hastings. It will commence on Monday, February 6th at 6:30pm, and then consecutively run the first Monday of every following month.

Longevity in Seventh-day Adventists

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

According to recent research, that was done by National Geographic, Seventh-day Adventists outlive their American counterparts by up to 10 years.

By far the most surprising fact is that Seventh-day Adventists are the only culture that are not losing their longevity. It appears that their positive healthy behavior is playing a major part. Seventh-day Adventists re-enforce positive thinking by following a vegetarian lifestyle. They do not have habits of smoking or drinking, and exercise is an important part of their lifestyle. As a people they have one day of rest each week in which they totally unplug and that is called the Sabbath. These factors seem to play a significant role in their longevity.

If you want to see your grandchildren grow up, it will depend on what choices you make. Genetics only accounts for 30% for how long you live…how long you live is up to your lifestyle.
