Today is March 4 and our son Leighton's 14th birthday. He awoke today with a blanket of snow and school closed and he and his sister and brother were quite happy about it. I love my wife and kids and so blessed that God has allowed me to be in their lives. I enjoy being their pastor again. God continues to bless our family and we are so grateful.

I am here in the office at church about to go back to work on the sermon from Acts 2, "The Church that Amazes." I am really enjoying studying and preaching through the Book of Acts. The church at Jerusalem was the first radiant church and the model for churches to emulate today. They shined upward in worship and prayer, inward in discipleship and fellowship, and outward in evangelism, missions, and ministry. I am so thankful for the Lord's blessings upon our fellowship here at FB Lavaca. We continue to see people saved and baptized into our fellowship. There were 6 teenagers saved last Wednesday night!

I have some pictures to post. First here are two pictures taken at the Deacon/Widow's Valentine Banquet. We had a blast and I was so proud of our deacons and Sunday school classes that really blessed our widows. Way to go!

Next is a picture of Bro Terry, our praise team, and choir as they lead us in worship. Bro Terry does a wonderful job of leading us in praise and worship and I appreciate him and the choir and all our media guys for their hard work of ministry.

The next picture is Bro Tony Buchanan, our executive pastor, baptizing someone. We are blessed to see someone get baptized almost every Sunday. Thank You Jesus. Bro Tony does a great job and I appreicte him so much as he helps me in many ways. He is currently preaching a series of messages on Sunday nights on Jesus and the cross and he is doing a great job.

The last photo was taken just this morning. My wife got real loud and and it scared me and I thought oh no what has happened. Nothing had happended; she was excited about all these deer in our back yard. This photo was taken as I stood on my back porch and caught these deer at our neighbor's pond. Yes, snow in March and I like it, but not nearly as much as my three teenagers!

One last word-- my DFEA e-mail account is currently down and if you would like to contact me please send the e-mail to danny@firstlavaca.com. I should have it back up and running soon. Pray for me please as I travel next Wednesday to the FBC Indian Trails, NC to preach twice at the Real Evangelism Conference. I will fly back on Thursday.
