Get To Know Us
Big Creek Cowboy Church - "Outriders For Christ"
Welcome to a place where you’re greeted with a hug and a handshake. We are all family here and our only purpose is to worship and receive the Word of our Lord and Savior and serve Him faithfully, knowing that wherever we are gathered in His Name, He will be among us — Matthew 18:2
When it began:
Big Creek Cowboy Church’s birth was November, 2011 on a small ranch on Big Creek Road in Shepherd, Texas. From there, it grew and the church moved to a shopping center in Shepherd. In May, 2013, a 4 1/2 acre lot was purchased in Coldspring, Texas on N. Butch Arthur Road. The land, at one time, had been the old San Jacinto County Trail Rider’s Club, then a dance hall, then a hay barn! With God leading us, we turned it into the church it is today. We started out with almost nothing, but with God’s blessing, it grew little by little. God provided what we needed, always in His time. Here we are today …. We are still building His kingdom and will until he returns. Thank you God, for blessing us with Big Creek Cowboy Church!
Tithing:
Although tithing is an important part of worshiping our Lord, we don’t pass an offering plate. There is a cowboy hat & a little wooden church provided for tithes and love offerings, so that you don’t miss out on your blessing by giving to the work of the Lord.
May God richly bless you for your support of this ministry.
Mal. 3:10, Lev. 27:30, 1 Cor. 9:6-9
