The Fellowship of Christian Cowboys was founded by Wilbur Plaugher, the famous rodeo clown and Mark Schricker, National Finals Rodeo Calf Roping and Steer Wrestling Champion. When Mark and Wilbur first had the vision for starting a fellowship for cowboys they envisioned cowboys ministering to cowboys. They knew there was an important message to get out and they knew cowboys would listen to cowboys. They just never guessed the full scope of what God had in store for the ministry.
