Our Story

God gave Jennifer a dream of starting an equine therapy ranch when she was just 14 years old. As she grew and prayed over the dream, God made it more clear as to the purpose of that dream. It became clear the ranch was supposed to help women, youth, and trauma victims, and that God wanted to restore them and show them who He had created them to be. The only thing lacking was a knowledge of managing the horses. God brought Johnny into her life who had the horse experience and the pieces all started falling into place. Jennifer met Michael and Judy when she started attending a church in California as a single mom and they became a huge part in her life. They helped to mentor Johnny and Jennifer as a newly married couple and continued to be a large part in their life as mentors. After Johnny and Jennifer moved to Idaho, they got a call that Michael and Judy were moving to the same area. As they prayed, they knew that the Calderon's were supposed to be a part of the ranch. They agreed to be on the board of directors and have brought a lot of wisdom and experience that Johnny and Jennifer were needing. God has continued to bring the necessary people into their path and they now have a property in Eagle they are renting and were given three beautiful horses! They are excited to see where God is taking the ranch through the next phase of the journey.
