You are visitor #:
When I decided to step out of my comfort zone and follow the
calling God had on my life, which was to start this ministry, I
wanted to be sure that I would be able to reach people with as
few hindrances as possible. I took a random survey of 100
people with a few questions I felt were important to know how the
average person felt.

I wanted to know the “Reasons” or “Excuses” why people did not
attend church services regularly, and or what did they not like or
feel comfortable with going to church. The top three complaints
came as follows:

1. All they (the church) want is money.
2. I feel it’s a “keeping up appearances” session with the dress   
code.
3. I don’t like being embarrassed by being publicly
acknowledged as a visitor.

The solution! I sought out the scriptures and found that the
“passing” of the offering plate was no where to be found. Jesus
went out in everyday attire and preached and or taught people
who wore the same, and He didn’t embarrass people unless
they brought it on themselves.

At Cowboy Fellowship at the Cross we have an antique metal
milk jug placed at the entrance on the table with bulletins and
other important information. Our dress code if you will is come
as you feel comfortable, on your way to work or just getting off,
you’ll fit right in. And finally, we acknowledge guests and visitors
with a hand shake before or after the service.

None the less, it does take money to help people, as well as to
pay bills. I do not believe in wasting money on a fancy building,
or fancy things, but I do believe in helping people. You do not
need to be a member, to have a need, and if you have a need
“Even to the least of these” we are called to help. Feed the
hungry, clothe the cold & educate the less fortunate.

“THANK YOU” for allowing us to help those who cannot help
themselves, by continuing to share the love of Jesus Christ with
a true servant’s heart and supporting us as we “Go thee
therefore and make disciples.” Your support and donations
allows us to continue to serve our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

In His Service & Yours,
Pastor Mike
