    Galloping Cowboys Wrangle Children's Hearts

    May 21, 2007

    Members of churches belonging to the Cowboy Church Network of North America paraded on horses through downtown Thomasville on Thursday, May 17 to Baptist Children’s Homes’ (BCH) Mills Home residential campus. A horse drawn wagon delivered food and supplies collected by the cowboys for BCH’s annual “Food Rounup.” Cowboys spent the evening with the boys and girls giving horseback rides and conducting a cowboy style worship service at the campus church. The event was organized by Cowboy Church of North America founder and longtime North Carolina Baptist pastor Jeff Smith. Smith and the Cowboy Church Network have established dozens of churches across the state to provide a unique style of worship specifically for cowboys.
