We hope reading about Mark Schricker and theearly years of the FCC may bring back memories for some and relatehistory to others. Mark went home to be with his Lord on the 40thAnniversary of his and Wilbur’s launching of their vision of a fellowship for cowboys and all those who would follow.

In Loving Memory of Mark SchrickerMark, the FCC’s cofounder, went home tobe with the Lord Oct20,2014. Up to the very end, he wassurrounded by the Spirit, friends andfamily. His memorial service was heldat Rocky Mountain Calvary Chapel inColorado Springs, CO.“Whatever it Takes!”, was PastorRandy Weaver’s theme for Mark inhis message at the memorial service.Tell it like it is, no hedging around, dowhat you’ve got to do, pull your ownweight and do whatever it takes; thatis the cowboy culture Mark came outof and carried throughout his lifetime.This motto influenced his rodeoing,ranching, training rodeo horses, building homes, family life and getting theword out about the love of the Lordfor cowboys and cowgirls. He just didwhatever it took to get the job done.His rodeo career all started whenMark and his dad were watching theCow Palace rodeo on television one yearand during the steer wrestling, Marktold his dad he thought he could do thatand his dad just chuckled at him. Marklived in the wet region of Oregon andto practice, he and his brothers built around pen with posts poked into theground for the wall and filled it withwood chips from the local lumber millsto keep out of the mud. They got an oldsteer and would run him in the roundpen jumping off onto him from theirhorse some two years later Mark wascalf roping and steer wrestling at rodeos!True to form, he hit the professionalrodeo circuit and soon won the SteerWrestling Championship of the National Finals Rodeo in 1962. In 1963 hemet, Lynne Harley, a long-legged collegegirl at the Denver Stock Show and sixmonths later they were married at theend of the Cheyenne Frontier Days.They had three best men picked outand waited to see who would “draw up”right in order to make the wedding.In the next nine years he had madethe National Finals Rodeo fourteentimes in two events; calf roping 7 times(when the calves were big!) and steerwrestling (when the steers were big!) 7times. He won the Calf Roping Championship at the National Finals Rodeoin 1969 and became the first man towin two separate events at the NationalFinals Rodeo. In 1965 he was Runner-Up All Around World Championto Dean Oliver and Runner-up SteerWrestling Champion to Harley May.Mark heading for Mac Baldridge in Connecticut.

Mark doggin at the Pendleton, Oregon ProRodeo.Mark calf roping on his good horse “Twitch.”Then in 1967 he was again Runner-Upheld for President Reagan. He was theAll Around World Champion to Larryheader in the team roping for PresidentMahan and 3rd in the PRCA (RCA atReagan’s Secretary of Commerce, Malthat time) Steer Wrestling average. Hecolm ‘Mac’ Baldrige. Mac flew Markwas Steer Wrestling Director on theand two other pro-rodeo cowboys backRCA board of directors for one and ato his home in Connecticut for a weekhalf years. Another lifetime rodeo highof roping before the Montreal, Canadalight is when he competed at the rodeoWorld’s Fair Rodeo. That starteda twenty-year friendship withatton ranch.PteaNethMac and Mark and it was notRanchin’ onunusual to have the Secretaryof Commerce eating at thelocal diner in our hometownof Florence, CO. I rememberthe marquee out front of therestaurant reading, Hamburgers - 2 and underneath,“Welcome US Secretary ofCommerce.”I heard a comment atMark’s memorial service byone of his friends, “I didn’tknow all of that aboutMark”. That was the waywith Mark; accolades werethings of the past, it waswhat had to be done today that was important.In 1968 their son,Mack, was born. Mackhit the rodeo trail withthem from the beginning and was soon talk ing sentences to everyone he met beforehe was even walking. Mark retiredfrom the professional rodeo circuit afterten years of hitting it hard and beganranching for Lynne’s uncle Nate Pattonin the Canon City, CO area. He lovedlife on the ranch. As Louis L’Amoursays, he worked from, “Can see to can’tsee” and managed to train a few calfhorses along the way.In 1975 their daughter, Leah, joinedthe family. Her big brother was thrilledto have a “play buddy” and it was nice tohave a little cowgirl join the ranch.Around 1978, Mark had a chanceto purchase some 194 acres south ofFlorence, CO and so began settingup a training center for rodeo horses.He eventually built an indoor trainingbarn with a riding arena between the22 stalls and big outside roping arena.The bunkhouse always had several fellaswho needed a place to hang out andMark would have a training horse forthem to practice on. There were manyjackpots at the “Schricker’s Arena” withMark and Mack usually competingalongside many friends and Little Leahmanning the concession stand.One of their favorite projects wasprobably Clyde, the dromedary camel.Yes, you heard right. Clyde spent somethree months there being broke to ride

Mark and Mac checking out Clyde.and terrifying all the horses. Hewas to be used for a commercialstunt by a lady in Canon City.They trained Clyde to kneel tothe command of “Cush” and toguide fairly successfully aroundthe place. The lady won third inher contest riding him aroundtwo blocks in downtown Denver,CO wearing a bikini and singing“Dixie.”Of all the things Mark undertook, the love and driving forceof his life was his love of the Lord.Mark didn’t come to his walk withthe Lord easily. Along with hisfierce competitive spirit in rodeo,he had an immense pride andself-reliance. In 1969, he had justexperienced one of the best yearshe had ever enjoyed in his rodeocareer, when he discovered a moleon the left side of his neck that wasblack and growing. It was diagnosed as Melanoma, a deadly andunpredictable form of cancer. Afterhis first six operations, he said, “Iwas able to get back to roping and‘doggin fast and I really felt no needfor help. I thought I was doing alright, I would beat it on my own. Itwasn’t until we had retired from theactive rodeo circuit and were work-Building Mark’sindoor arena.ing on the Nate Pattonranch that the cancercame back on the otherside of my neck. Thedoctors told me at thatpoint (with surgeries)that they should be ableto keep me going at leastanother five years. It hitme that I just might notmake it might notbe able to lick it on myown.”It was then thatGod set Mark up. Hehad to attend a weddingrehearsal for a friend atthe church Lynne hadbeen attending; Mark wasto be the best man. “Thepreacher had read a storyconcerning my cancerand he asked how I wasdoing. Automatically, Ianswered, ‘Alright‘. ThenI turned back around tohim and said, ‘No, I’mnot alright and that Ifaced major surgery ina week.” We went tohis study where he andLynne prayed for me.”Mark didn’t say a word

s owner.Saddling Clyde for hiduring the meeting but left there a “new man”. He was soexcited about his discovery of the overwhelming Love thathad encompassed him during that prayer that he had forgotten all about his cancer. Mark said at that point, “I forgotabout dying and began to really live.”Mark became impassioned about sharing this newfound way of life and was talking about it with the onlyother rodeo personality he knew to be Christian during theDenver Stock show that January.This other cowboy was rodeo’s funny man and bullfighter,Wilbur Plaugher. Wilbur had been keeping a list of fellows hehad talked to about the Lord. Mark and Wilbur decided theyneeded to do something to get these “secret service” Christiansout in the open. They desperately needed some fellowship witheach other. Introverted, bashful and quiet Mark Schricker said,“Whatever it takes, we have to do something.” After a coupleof months of desperate prayer and soul searching, Mark posteda note at the Phoenix, AZ pro-rodeo. The note said they weregoing to hold a meeting to see if there was enough interest tostart a fellowship. Seven men showed up at the meeting, WaltArnold, Barry Burke, Jim Warren, John Quintana, Stan Searle,Mark and Wilbur. They decided to target Cheyenne FrontierDays Rodeo for the first meeting.As the time came near, Mark realized he was going to Memorial edition of the Cowboy Bible.have to MC the program. The same man, who had walkedout of speech class because he couldn’t face giving a speech,was going to have to get up in front of people and talk. That’swhen Mark’s “whatever it takes” attitude showed up. Theevening of the program at Holding’s Little America ballroom,Mark took a seat at the front of the room with knots in hisstomach. Not looking around, just sweating out his prayersand thinking “there may not be anyone even show up”! Whenthe time came, he stood and turned to see a standing roomonly crowd.God started reaching into the rodeo cowboy worldthat night. From there the Fellowship of Christian Cowboys found its start in 1973. The next year an article in theRodeo Sports New and Western Horseman magazine announced to the world that the new organization was madeup of cowboys who wanted to “stand up and be counted.”They started holding “cowboy church” at many of therodeos so cowboys and their families could attend church.I remember Mark saying how his heart swelled at the sightof the little families threading their way through the Cheyenne, WY fairgrounds toward the fellowship tent. Requestsstarted flooding into the little office, located at Mark andLynne’s training facility, to have one of the Christian Cowboys come speak at their meetings. Bibles were ordered

meetings where they prayed for me. He wantedto use me to get this started, me and Wilbur.”As the FCC got established and hischildren got older, Mark continued to trainhorses and compete at the Senior ProRodeo’s.During this time he also discovered that heloved to build and so when Lynne’s father,who was an architect, retired and moved tothe ranch; they started building some homeslocally. Mark sold his tractor and bought abackhoe, learning to put in septic systemsand dig trenches for all kinds of infrastructures. You could see him pulling his harrowworking the arena with his backhoe. Unusual, but. whatever it takes. He continuedtraining horses and developing their subdivisions for many years. After he retired fromtraining performance horses for others, Markcontinued building custom homes with beautiful log work until his Parkinson’s would nolonger allow.In 2009, God was gracious in allowingMark and Lynne to sell their ranch in CO andmove to South Dakota for a few years to becloser to Leah and her family. They developedmany new friends during their time in SDand continued to share Christ with whomeverthey met. God then coordinated for Markand Lynne to return to Colorado to live withson, Mack and family where they also enjoyedreuniting with long time friends.Mark has gone to be with the Lord sinceMark with Wilbur at the Schricker Arena cowboy camp meeting.our last edition and he is getting to meet hisJesus face to face. What a difference a monththrough a memorial for Uncle Nate’s wife who passedcan make! Wow! Make sure you do whatever itaway about then. A cowboy cover was designed so thetakes to “get busy with living”, sharing Christ with whomeverBible would be something the cowboy world would be apt you meet and living out Mark’s closing verse: “For to me, toto carry around and now millions of cowboy Bibles havelive is Christ and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:21”been dispersed all over the world. It was the launching pad“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of Histhrough the last forty years of new cowboy ministers andfaithful servant.” Psalm 226:25ministries to the rodeo and cowboy world. The motto for“You held me by my right hand. You guided me withthe Fellowship was, “To present to cowboys and all whomYour counsel, and you received me into glory. Whom havethey influence, the challenge and adventure of receivingI in heaven but You? My flesh and my heart failed: butJesus Christ as Savior and Lord; and then to disciple themGod is now the strength of my heart and my portion forin their commitment to serve Jesus in their relationshipsever.” (part of) Psalm 73:23-26and in the fellowship of the church.”Lynne told one of Mark’s cowboy friends, “He’s upAt the 25th anniversary edition of the Line Rider, Markthere checking out his heavenly rope horse. Only thingsaid, “It’s fun to be used (by God). You can look back and seethough, it might be a white one. I don’t know what he’llhow He used you. I don’t take credit for any of that stuff, I guar- think of that.” Mark’s cowboy friend said, “Well, he’ll justantee you, I don’t. I know the reason the Lord healed me backhave to get over it!” Mark words probably went like this,when I first became a Christian at one of those little fellowship“Whatever it takes I guess he’ll just have to do.”

Being VigilantWith John KisselThe chirping of crickets and the distant barkingof a dog poked holes in the inky solitude ofthe night as I walked outside. The 2:30 a.m.peacefulness in the country seems just about perfect as thesummer heat of the previous day has been chased away. Thebeauty of the cool solitude is punctuated by clear twinklingof innumerable diamond like stars gleaming down from theheavens above.Even though there was no dew, the damp coolnessshould have turned the dry windrows of hay to a tougherperfection. The throaty cranking of my diesel tractor enginealmost seemed a shame as it tore through the silence of theearly morning. However, the engine coming to life was awelcome sound to a cowboy farmer like me. My 806 International tractor and 273 New Holland baler, like me, have agedwell and are still pretty dependable. Good maintenance andTLC coupled with lots of prayer still yield productivity.The headlights on the tractor illuminated the heavywindrow in front and made driving ahead possible. Thisrequired an exact allowance of space against the tractor tiresto feed the full width of the windrow into the baler. Thefloodlight on the back allowed me to see the windrow gentlyrising on the baler pickup and disappear easily into the balechamber. Glancing further back behind revealed a dottedline of evenly spaced bales fading into the dark distance.As dawn approached and the baler steadily kickedout bale after bale, the rhythmic sounds and feel of theequipment brought awareness to the physical senses of sight,sound, and feel into focus. There was a steady “hum-humhum” sound from the engine up front and the “whining”of the power train beneath. From the baler itself came a“clickety-clickety-clickety” sound as the pickup rolled over,punctuated by the less frequent but regular “clank” as the“knotter” tied another bale.These rhythmic sounds were accompanied by thefeel of the equipment’s movements. The physical sensescould be lulled into drowsiness as the process wore on, yetthey seemed to assure me of the machinery’s proper operation.It was as if the tractor and baler themselves “talked” tome. As long as their “voices” were consistent, all was well.But if that humming became even the slightest bit laboredor the sounds from the baler slowed, it was an alarm thatsomething was wrong. Immediate attention was needed toavert a breakdown such as breaking a shear pin between thedrive line and fly wheel. When this happened it was not amajor problem, but required time to replace the bolt andpull the packed wads of hay back out of the pickup and balechamber. Some of the overload had to be freed for the balerto get started again. Paying attention and reacting quicklycould save some grief. Being vigilant was much easier.Walking with the Heavenly Father and learning toplease Him are certainly the results of adherence to a fulltime commitment. This undertaking would compare to anongoing marathon rather than a short sprint. Vigilance toevery aspect of His desires and requirements as set forth inHis Word is necessary. But He has not left us on our own tocarry this out.He has provided light for our path as spoken so often in scripture. The books of Psalms and John speak muchabout that light. One clear reference is Psalms 119:105which says “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a lightfor my path.” As we walk in the light He has provided inHis word and the unction of His Spirit within we are givendirection in our walk with Him.Studying His Word is so very important in this walk.There are no short cuts to learn, know, and understand Hisstatutes and laws for us – only searching it out daily willaccomplish these things. Again, the book of Psalms speaksso clearly of this as in chapter 119 verses 97-98 “Oh, howI love your law! I meditate on it all day long. Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are everwith me.”Finally, we have the guidance of the Holy Spiritwho resides within our hearts as we yield to Him. Hecomes to bring all the working of the Heavenly Fatherwithin us. Continuously, unending, though subtle is Hishelp for us. Strength and guidance are clearly providedin our steps of walking with Him day by day through thehelp of the Holy Spirit. Life with the Father is made possible (and much easier) if we are vigilant in obedience toHis voice within.Thanks for sharing a few thoughts with this ole cowboy farmer.11

By Mike Shields, Sr.FCC: Board MemberIn The Saddle And The Will Of GodAll of my growing up years wason a small ranch, so that becamemy vision of adult life. I wouldbe a rancher. But not the small ranch variety.My ranch would be big. “Ponderosa big” forthose who remember Bonanza. There wereother childhood aspirations that didn’t panout either. For instance, to me basketballwas the only sport on earth, and myimagination had me either playing with oragainst the likes of Bob Cousy, Elgin Bayloror . . . whew! I have really dated myself.God called me to become a missionary pastor. Could have been a rancher anda pastor, but for me it has been just pastor.With that came the blessing of preaching toranchers; helping with brandings, with cattledrives and the likes. The graciousness of theLord even included playing basketball whichwas a great way to relate to men who neededto know the love of God through Christ.Nothing big. No name recognition. Whenmy name is mentioned most think of my son.And that is okay with me because God’s willand way is always perfect. Are you thankful and content with where you are and withwhat you are doing?The will of God for your life doesn’tmean that you have to just grin and bear abad environment or bad circumstance. Ifyou are caught in an abusive relationshipyou need to do something about it; getgood, godly counsel and help sooner thanlater. If you are wallowing in a self-destructive lifestyle choice, God’s will is for you torepent and get things right. If you are suffering from sickness, get to a doctor as wellas secure strong prayer support. However,there are things that are out of our control,tough to take and yet the better part of theperfect plan of God. An example comes outof the life of Helen Keller, deaf and mute,12who said, “I thank God for my handicaps,for through them, I have found myself,my work, and my God.” The apostle Paulsaid it even better: “I am well content withweaknesses, with insults, with distresses,with persecutions, with difficulties, forChrist’s sake; for when I am weak, then Iam strong.” (2 Corinthians 12:10).The will of God brings contentment,gratitude, joy of living. How do we getthere in life?No person can ever get there withouta personal trusting relationship with Jesusas Savior and Lord. Christ has done Hispart by dying for our sins and rising fromthe dead. Our part is to admit that our sinsdeserve hell, believe that Jesus died in ourplace taking the punishment for our sins,and confess Him as our only Savior (seeRomans 10:8-13).With Jesus as Savior, you then need torest in the fact that He fully accepts you (Romans 8:1), has made you a born again childof God (Romans 8:16-17), has a special future for you (Romans 8:18), is totally devotedto your eternal safety (Romans 8:31-39), is inthe process of making you like Christ, and onit goes. You might be a rancher, a barrel racer,bull rider, or a pastor, but this is God’s will atwork in your life.So, God’s will is not so much aboutwhat you are doing and where you are as itis about what you are becoming in your relationship with Jesus. It is in that relationshipwhere we find meaning and purpose. It is inthat relationship where we start experiencingtrue contentment regardless of circumstances.It is in that relationship whereour hearts begin to overflow withthankfulness. And it is inthat relationship where wefind the joy of the Lord.
