Mission
As you might imagine it was without a doubt an awesome blessing when the Lord allowed me to fulfill my childhood dreams of becoming a world champion bull rider. However, today my greatest blessing of all comes in the form of my family and knowing that they to believe in the vision of Western Harvest Ministries. It truly amazes me that as I look back over my life and my sports career, how much the lord was preparing me for a big plan.
You see I too have walked where many of these young men are desiring at any cost to walk. With some, it is from the pain a dysfunctional upbringing. With others, it will be the uncompromising stand that will need to be taken in the professional arena in order to avoid the many vicious pitfalls that will be lurking around them as they seek for fame without character. Together we can make a difference by sharing God’s love and equipping them with the truth. But in order to build a relationship with them, we must establish a place of refuge for them. This is why we have prepared this unique look at our ministry and it’s outreaches.

Scott Mendes, Founder and Executive Director
Western Harvest Ministries is a non-profit 501c3 organization that is incorporated in the state of Texas. We are dedicated to ministering to the youth of America and to all that love the western heritage. We desire to share the unconditional love of God and his grace through conducting western events that will both challenge and equip all participants and spectators to place their personal relationship with the Lord Jesus first place in their lives.
Our goal is to continue to see the Lord transform the lives of these young people as they are able to perform in a sport that they love. We are in the process of developing our property in Weatherford, TX that will serve as a ministry headquarters. This property will allow us to produce many various types of events. The ministry currently owns it’s own full size rodeo arena, and has recently purchased (2) 24×64 metal classroom buildings that are set up on the new property. The property has several hundred feet of highway frontage that we will offer for advertising to off set some of the production cost associated with the outreach events.
For the past several years, Western Harvest Ministries has operated throughout the United States conducting Christian Bull Riding events and training camps, as well as, many special youth and church speaking engagements.
Your support will enable us to better reach the Weatherford and Dallas Ft. Worth Metroplex and our country as well.
