While it seems like things are moving slowly from a construction standpoint, God has still been at work in this ministry.  We have been receiving generous tack donations from the community, have begun receiving some financial support from donors, and are getting closer to breaking ground at the ranch.

Jessi returned from her training at Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch a few days ago.  The training was life changing to say the least.  Crystal Peaks has helped start up hundreds of similar ministries, and spent the week training her up not only in how to run a successful ministry, but how to equip oneself spiritually to withstand the trials that will come with following the call of God.

We’ve got all of our contractors lined up and are patiently waiting for construction to begin.  The large amount of rainfall we received this spring, while a huge blessing for our ponds and vegetation that have been suffering from the effects of our extended drought, have left us with huge setbacks with our excavation dates.  But God can use it all, and is teaching us through this that everything is in His good timing, it’s all in His control, and through this we will learn patience and diligence.  

Please continue to pray for us, specifically that construction will begin soon and that God will continue to bring us the financial partners that we need to launch and sustain Unbridled Ranch.
