I met LOTS of really awesome people during my Fall tour which concluded in Picayune, MS, on November 2. I've got some things planned in San Antonio and Floresville over the next two months. Then me and Matt Di Filippo might try to get some dates in and around South Texas at the beginning of January.
Matt Di Filippo was nominated for Unity awards as well and we are working on a new CD of his. I'll be producing again and Matt is writing new material that will take him up another level as an artist and as a minister of music. His CD is set for a late-Spring or early-Summer 2009 release. Keep this project in your prayers.

NEWS!! Two-Twelve Ministries has just signed on to participate with two other San Antonio ministries in very unique and exciting opportunities. The River City House of Prayer (RCHOP) is an ecumenical setting for ministers of any/all Christian faiths to come together and offer intercessory prayer for the City of San Antonio and its leaders. Very similiar to Eucharistic Adoration in that each ministry signs up for a one or two hour segment to lead prayer in whatever manner the Holy Spirit leads them. Every Friday I will join with Dianita Patuel (and sometimes, Matt Di Filippo), to lead a two-hour segment of prayer, and every Sunday night I will lead an additional hour of prayer through music. This is very exciting as it will allow my ministry to become more involved in ecumenical events.
The second opportunity is with the Pilgrim Center of Hope, founded by Deacon Tom and Mary Jane Fox here in San Antonio. They have invited me and Matt to provide music as a series of gatherings they will host at the PCH. This will be a great opportunity as I continue to use my ministry for outreach.
And if this is your first time visiting my page, if you want to get to know what I and my ministry are about, read the blog entry above regarding the interview with Today's Catholic newspaper... and if you have a prayer request that you would like to go worldwide, please add it below.
Peace in Jesus. - Dan
PS - Everyone who subscribes to my blog and lets me know they did will receive a free copy of my next cd of original tunes... I plan to record and release "Out of the Darkness" in 2009. I'd love to give a LOT of copies away.
Hi, I'm Dan Dúet and I appreciate your visiting my page.
I am 7th of 8 children and grew up just outside New Orleans (in the metropolis known as Belle Chasse). I now live in San Antonio and left a corporate career of 16+ years to follow a vocational call to music as ministry. I am involved in providing ministry through music in Catholic and other Christian settings. I consider myself a "contemplative charismatic"... meaning I enjoy contemplative, quiet prayer time, but am also very comfortable in the Charismatic Renewal of the Church.
I began writing songs for retreats when I was in college (Geaux Tigers!) and that has led to my writing songs for a broader audience and vision.
The purpose of everything I do with music is single-fold: to bring people to the love and salvation of Jesus Christ. That's it. Nothing fancy. My thoughts about whatever gift of music He may have given me can best be summed up in the lyrics from one of my favorite Christian artists, Bebo Norman, "I would rather be cast away, seperated from the human race... if I don't bring You glory." Whether it be through music, prayer, encouraging another person, my sole desire is to bring Him glory.
I have recorded three CD's to date: "Touch the Flame" / "Cry Out to Jesus" / "Song to the King - A Christmas Collection".
Let me know if I can ever prayer for you or an intention of yours. And please, please keep me in your prayers.

PRCA Cowboy Chris Mason lowers his head in prayer at the start of the rodeo Bull riding event in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
There's a hundred years of history and a hundred before that All gathered in the thinkin' goin' on beneath his hat.
He's got Buffalo Bill Cody and the Jigger boss And all of the brave blue soldiers that General Custer lost The cold flame burns within him 'til his skin's as cold as ice And the dues he paid to get here are worth every sacrifice.
All the miles spent sleepy drivin', all the money down the drain All the "if I's" and the "nearly's", all the bandages and the pain All the female tears left dryin', all the fever and the fight Are just a small downpayment on the ride he makes tonight.
It's guts and love and glory-one mortal's chance at fame His legacy is rodeo and cowboy is his name.
Apostolic Greetings Dan! Thanks for being a friend! I love San Antonio & still have a small ministry there. May you have wonderfull Christmas Holidays! God bless and keep thee! Now & Forever! May 2009 be the BEST year you have ever lived so far! AMEN.
I pray that God the father always guides your footsteps.Thank you for touching my life by sharing the message of Christ.I pray for guidance for your sister from the holy sprit, whom I still love with all my heart.I pray she finds peace and Joy always. God Bless Lloyd
