Lord, show all of us that your ways give more life than the ways of the world and that following you is better than chasing after selfish goals. Help us to accept setbacks, not as a measure of their worth, but as a chance for a new start. Give us strength to hold our faith in you and to keep alive our joy in your creation. Lord our God, as we have come together this morning, we ask in your kindness to fill us with the knowledge of your will so that, pleasing you in all things, we may grow in every good work. May God be the source of all patience and encouragement, enable us to live in perfect harmony with one another in the spirit of Christ Jesus. With one heart and one voice may we glorify God, now and forever.

  • MESSAGE from the FOUNDER
    MESSAGE f r o m t h e FOUNDER the Terry Foundation approaches its twenty-fifth JL JL anniversary next year, a modest beginning in 1986 has evolved into the states largest private source of scholarship funding for eight Texas public universities. After its first seventeen years at the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University, the Foundation expanded in 2004 to include Scholars at the University of Houston and at Texas State University-San Marcos. Later in 2006, the program expanded again to the University of Texas at San Antonio and the University of Texas at Dallas, and again in the fall of 2010 to the University of North Texas in Denton. In 2010, the Board of Directors approved additional growth for the Terry Foundation Scholarship Program to Texas Tech University in Lubbock. The first Scholars for Texas Tech were selected at interviews in April 2011 and will begin college in the fall of 2011. The Foundation is pleased to welcome this outstanding institution to the Terry program. Howard L. Terry This past April, the Foundation selected 200 new 2011 Scholars. This will bring the total number of active Terry Scholars at all eight universities to 698. The spring of 2011 also brought graduation to 133 Terry Scholars who join a growing body of Scholar Alumni that now numbers over 1,600. Our growing family of graduates are serving their communities in virtually every occupation and field of service imaginable. We greatly appreciate the many letters we get from our alumni around the world. In October of 2010, the Foundation was honored by the National Association of Scholarship Providers at its annual conference in Denver by being selected as the National Scholarship Provider of the Year.
