Who We Are

Under responsible spiritual leadership, horses and horse-related activities offer many unique illustrations both of our relationship with God and with one another. Horses are a reliable tool to illustrate biblical principles and through the relationship between horse and rider a person’s heart may be opened to the Spirit’s work in many unique ways.

Our mission is to provide transformational experiences of the love and truth of God through horses, riding, and horse-related activities.

1.  To see staff and guests begin and deepen a relationship with Christ.

2.  To develop in staff and guests, godly character, self-confidence, teamwork, and healthy relationship skills through the disciplines of responsible horse care and riding instruction.

3.  To develop the leadership capacity of campers and staff in a way that integrates their spiritual life, character development, relational skills, and professional development.

4.  To offer experiences of spiritual refreshment and renewal through the fun and safe interaction with nature as well as a hospitable friendly staff.

5.  To develop safe riding and horse handling skills and a practical understanding of basic horse science.

6.  To develop and maintain our facility, equipment, and horses to the highest professional standards, gratifying the needs of our guests and lending credibility to our message.
