Tyler & Ashley Martin:
The Other Side
Bar Nunn, Wyoming
Sometimes, Trent Fetherston thinks about what might’ve been. “I’m lucky I’m alive,” he says. “If Tyler and Ashley wouldn’t have come, I don’t know where I’d be.”
Trent’s talking about Tyler and Ashley Martin, church planting missionaries who moved to Bar Nunn, Wyoming, several years ago and serve the community through Outfitter Church. “Back then, everybody knew Trent,” Tyler says. “Yeah, you could name any bar around here,” says Trent, “and I’ve been kicked out of it.”
“We get asked, ‘Why plant churches in Wyoming?’ and the answer is easy: there’s too many places without one.”
Tyler Martin
Bar Nunn, population 2,986, doesn’t have lots of event space. That’s why Outfitter Church meets at The Hangar, a local bar and grill. “It’s interesting,” Trent says. “A window divides the space. We worship on one side while people on the other side watch from the bar.”
One Sunday morning, a curious Trent Fetherston walked over to the other side of The Hangar. It’s the best decision he ever made. “Tyler preached the gospel,” he says, “and I was born again.”
Trent is now one of more than 60 new believers who have been baptized at Outfitter Church. “My life has changed,” Trent says. “And I owe that all to Tyler and Ashley answering God’s call.”
