Welcome To Stillwater Cowboy Church

We exist to guide people on life's journey with Jesus.

We fulfill our purpose through three steps; gather together, grow in Christ, and go make disciples. We believe that by gathering together to build God honoring relationships and to worship is the starting place for discipleship and community. We believe that every person should grow in Christ: heart, soul, mind, and strength. We also believe that we are all called to make disciples and invite them into the process of gathering, growing, and going.
