Buckaroo Bob Moves!

I wanted to share an exciting development with you. Buckaroo Bob has moved to two new homes!

Buckaroo Bob’s Neighborhood will now be presenting regular shows in the Tyler Church of God (Tyler, Texas) and at Cornerstone Fellowship (Atlanta, Texas). We have already done puppet shows for both groups.

When we travel with the puppet show, we have two portable puppet houses. Each group has invited us to put a puppet house in its building. Each group has just very recently moved into its new facility!

The Tyler Church of God just finished their new building. It is at 14151 Rhones Quarter Road (FM 2964). Their web site is tylercog.org. For more information about their Sabbath services, contact Jon Coffee at 903/582-9328. Or you may email him at tjcoffee@earthlink.net.

Cornerstone Fellowship recently got their own building. It is located at 2814 Main Street in Atlanta Texas 75551. For more information about their Sabbath services, contact Richard Davis at 903/293-2224 or at 870/774-7008. Or you can email HUNSTER13@aol.com.

We are really excited to be able to serve these two churches in this way. We have also taken our DCM Trio to both places to sing. And I have preached at both places. This is the very thing that DCM was designed to do. DCM is not a church. It is a ministry that serves local churches.

I hope that you someday have the chance to fellowship with at least one of these two groups. I encourage you to contact them if you are ever nearby on the Sabbath and can come visit them. They would love to have you as a visitor. You will find both groups warm and hospitable.

The two groups are different in some ways, but each group has the love of God. The Tyler group has a more formal church service. Their congregational singing is usually hymns. The Cornerstone group has a lot of kids and has a more interactive church service. They usually sing praise music.

Whatever your preference for how Sabbath services are organized, I hope you will always keep an open mind when visiting other groups. The days of all church services being run exactly the same are over. There are less and less “yellow pencil” Churches of God. You may not like this change within the Body of Christ, but we must accept the fact that we cannot turn back the hands of the clock. We are in a new era. I have learned to enjoy this diversity that I see in different local congregations.

Whatever format a church uses, let’s all love one another as we obey God by keeping His Sabbath and as we preach the true Jesus with the world.
