Tiny Chapel - The Church at Texas This site is easily noticed by the number of hand painted signs by the highway saying things like "JESUS WON SATAN LOST" and "COME TO GOD." There are two portions divided by a small pond. The northern side contains a small stage and a gazebo, and the southern side contains the one room chapel, about 20'x15'. The chapel is always open. Outside the chapel is a horse trough converted into a baptismal font.
The congregation itself appears to be very pro-Israel. Inside the chapel are a couple of pews, a row of desks, an Israeli flag, a pulpit (with the King James Bible), a cross and menorah, and a very small organ.
