The West Texas Ranch for Christ is a unique facility available for use by church groups for retreats and for use by other Christian organizations. It is owned by the family of Evangelist Billie Hanks and is operated by a Board of Directors. Some of the ongoing activities include seminary classes on Disciplemaking taught by professors from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, TX, and involve ministerial students from most all the SBC seminaries and students from seminaries in Europe and South America. Baptist Collegiate Ministry Directors have held retreats there in recent years.
