I have land and stables!
Some friends have offered me free use of land which they would like to be used
to further the kingdom of God. It is a 2 acre plot with grazing
and a block of 2 stables, an enclosed barn and a tack room. A great start set-up! I will be moving my horse Biscuit (who
has been on loan for the past 2 years) onto the land soon and am looking for a companion for him. Both horses will be used for the ministry.
‘The Fathers Heart Youth Ranch’ is the name I
believe God has given me for the ministry; with a mission ‘to heal broken
hearts and lives through love’. I believe I am to communicate the ‘Father
heart’ of God primarily to hurting, disadvantaged children but to whole
families too.
‘Youth
ranch’ is an American term for an English centre, but I wanted it to stand out
as being different from other equine centres and riding schools here in England
to help in getting the right clientele – I also think ‘youth ranch’ sounds fun
for children and a slightly western theme may help in attracting boys too. The
service will be completely free of charge and dependent on donations.
Provision
for the start of the ministry is coming in various forms - free use of land,
and the donation of rugs, equipment and feed for my current horse. Also, some
previous donations are going towards start-up costs – and I know there is much
more to come. Pro-vision always follows vision!
Thank you
so much to those of you who have, and continue to support me in prayer,
encouragement and finances. It is such a blessing to know I have people who
believe in what God has called me to.
