“I find it very rewarding to work for the ranches. Although I do not get to see the children often, I love playing a part in making their lives better. Many of our children come from crisis situations that are no fault of their own.  We provide them a safe home, where they have loving parents and a ranch family that truly care about them. I have been and continue to be blessed by being a part of this ministry. “
