We know, we know..better late than never. It seems as if there are never enough hours in a day to get everything done especially when when you are on the road. For those of you who have ever been on the road for any length of time you know all about highways, hotels and late night pizza!

We just finished a 10 day tour of Texas. We had a great time seeing our friends that we only see once maybe twice a year. We had a wonderful time with Harold Marshall and all of our friends at Lake Country Jubilee where we sang with Gold City and Poet Voices at the performing arts center in Terrell, Texas. We have to admit that in all of our years on the road it had been a while since we had seen fog that thick. It was so thick that you couldn't see 10 feet in front of you!! A major highlight of our tour was when we got to spend time and sing with our former first tenor John Ramsey. John sang in the quartet from 1971-1981. Let me tell you he sounds as good as ever!! We finished our trip in McAllen, Texas and then started the 22 hour drive home.

Many of you have been asking about when we are coming out with a new recording. It is in the works. We are rehearsing and will be going into the studio soon to record an hymns project with the next month or two. It's hard when you have such a limited amount of time home to balance everything out and make sure that everything at home and in the office gets done.

We want to thank everyone who have supported this ministry with your prayers, finances ,bookings etc. during 2007. To the promoters who have booked our group we thank you and look forward to working with you again. To the DJ's thank you for playing our music. Radio is a very important part of what we do. It enables us to be heard by people who may never have the opportunity to hear the quartet in concert, but more importantly it is a great tool to help spread the gospel. To all of the pastors who have hosted the quartet at your church we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Finally, to all the good people who have come out to our concerts we thank you for your support. Without you we could not do what we do. We have felt your prayers and we thank you. 2007 was a year of opportunity and 2008 is shaping up to be a year of even greater opportunity. We will keep you posted as we get the details and things become finalized.

Last but not least, our website is back online. It is not finished yet but at least you can log on and keep up with our comings and goings. If you live on the west coast keep your eye out for us this spring we are finalizing everything right now. After everything has been nailed down, we will post the schedule on our website http://www.theheralds.org.We look forward to seeing everyone on the road. Come out and see us when we are in your area.

How Ordinary Guys Can Pick Up Extraordinary Women

Hey everyone, I'm not going to write a long article this month because Cathy (the lady that so graciously keeps up with our website and e-newsletter) is doing special feature for February and Valentines Day this year. Everyone on our mailing list will get it, so I urge you to go to our website http://www.lefevrequartet.com and sign up for our newsletter. The February newsletter will tell how each one of the guys met their spouse and began their lives together. Some of them are pretty entertaining, so I encourage you to check it out.

I do want to take the time to thank our wives and children for their never ending love and support. They make it hard for us to leave, but easy to come home after a long weekend of singing.

I heard someone say that behind every self made man, there is a woman rolling her eyes. That would definately be all of our wives!

So, please sign up for our e-newsletter and find out how all of the guys convinced women way out of their league to date them and eventually marry them.

Well when I think back on the past 12 months since we started this project I see the hand of God without a doubt. He has led us through so many doors, that to the natural eye would seem to be impossible, but with his hand of favor and direction my families life has been ordered. The title to this album really says it all. ONE GOOD REASON, it is my conviction that once we as musician's and or singers loose focus of why we do what we do just BECAUSE we can do it, we have stepped into a place were God is no longer in control. This means we must depend on our strength, talent, gifts, and ability to help us through everyday life not just in ministry. Well quite frankly I do not like that position. You see I have learned in ministry that it is the ANNOINTING that lifts every burden and destroys every yoke.

When Saul needed a change in his Life he called for David to play his music, but this went a lot deeper than just David strumming his harp. What Saul did not understand was it was the Anointing on David that caused the change in his atmosphere not David's talent. This is why every time David left, the spirit Saul was facing always came back and as a result Saul never experienced the total change in his heart he was longing for. You see in order for lives to change we as singers and musicians must keep focus that JESUS truly is the ONE GOOD REASON to do the ministry we do. Whether we are in front of thousands, or just by our self, one who humbles himself and is dependant on the Holy spirit will always get JESUS to show up where ever you need him. My prayer is your spirit be st ired this year knowing you still have still have ONE GOOD REASON to keep taking one step at a time knowing God will be right there with you. May the Lord bless you and keep in all you do.
