The Canelo Cowboy Church worships in a one-room school house every Sunday in Canello, AZ. The congregation of about 75 broke into two services for the first time this year to accommodate its growth. By July Pastor Steve Lindsey hopes the church will be in its new building with space on the property for a rodeo arena. It's bittersweet for this congregation.
