PROJECTS

Barn/Stalls
We would like to build a horse barn with at least ten stalls to house and shelter our horses. Stalling is needed during difficult weather and to assist in maintaining the health of the horse and monitor
the diets.

Farming Project
The children participated in gathering fruit during harvesting time of watermelon season this year. During this time, we were able to teach the children about the blessing of the land, reaping and sowing, and having a great work ethic. Another important aspect of this is allowing the children to see that GOD blesses us bountifully. But blessings are meant not just for our enjoyment but also to bless others. In scripture GOD commanded HIS people when gleaning the fields during harvest time that if they should forget something, do not return to the field to get it; rather leave it so others can have. The children were able to assist in blessing seven households with watermelons, and oh able to bless the herd as well. My dad teaches us that our animals must be taken care of and eat just like we need to eat.

Round Pens
There is a need for additional pens to conduct sessions and lessons with students. Most of the lessons involving horses will be in the round pens as it creates a safe environment to handle the horse and remain in close proximity to assist the child. It is central in the ability to effectively teach and carry out one on one sessions.
