This is Leroy
and Reda Cowert
They are cowboy evangelists with an amazing ministry. Out here, in the west, ranches are so far flung & remote, that many ranch families live 50 - 100 miles from the closest church. Since ranches don't close for the weekend most of these people don't get to attend church. Leroy & Reda take church to them. They travel the west in a horse trailer with living quarters pulled by a purple semi.
They attend ropings, rodeos, brandings, put on BBQs, minister at summer camps & go where ever they are asked to spread the Gospel. They make friends by offering their help at gatherings & brandings. Reda plays piano like nobody's business & they play & sing & tell stories & most importantly: preach The Word.
By going to these ranch communitys & pitching in with the work, they have created relationships & people have opened their hearts to the Lord.
Leroy often preaches from horse back & he is big on visuals. I've seen him use a spade bit as an object lesson & last week he used his grandpas rifle.
His point? You don't get to heaven by accident, you have to aim.
Leroy & Reda are amazing people with an awesome ministry & a true love for The Lord.
