🧩 As the children complete their puzzles, our first group of summer sessions has come to a close! This week, the kids proudly assembled their puzzles and found their missing piece at the cross — the most important piece, JESUS! A perfect wrap-up to an amazing start to the summer.

We’re thrilled to welcome a new group of kids for the next 4 weeks of fun, learning, and growth! And just like the kids, we’re working on our own big puzzle — our annual budget. So far, we’ve raised $91,545 of our $362,000 goal. Every piece matters, and you can help us find our missing piece.

📸 Summer Moments So Far! ☀️🧩
We’re having an amazing time with our first session group — just look at these pictures!

🎆 We’re closed next week to give our team and families a chance to rest and enjoy the holiday. We’ll be back next week for the final week of our first session group!

🧩 The kids will be finishing their puzzles and we’ll be celebrating the halfway point of our summer programs. We can’t wait to wrap up this first chapter on a high note!

We were also blessed to have a couple different groups out this week to help us with several projects around the Ranch, including putting hay up in the loft (thank you Service Express!), painting our fencing, returning pop cans, among other things! Thank you TASC group!

Week 2 of sessions is officially wrapped up! 🧩 This week, we focused on the corner pieces of the puzzle our participants are working to put together and the cornerstone people in their life that help to build a strong foundation.

They’ve been guiding horses through obstacles, and in the process, learning how to navigate challenges with patience and purpose.

We’re so thankful for a safe and meaningful week, and we’re already looking forward to continuing the journey next week!

📣 Budget Update: We're Not There Yet! 💸🐷☀️

It’s been HOT the last few days 🔥 — so our pig, Scrappie, took matters into his own hooves and claimed the pool 💦 The goats? Supervising, of course.

Meanwhile, our fundraising goal is still feeling the heat — we’re at $69,523, but we've got a long way to go before we can hit our target. We're so grateful for the support so far, but we still need your help to make it all the way. 🐐🐖

If you’ve been thinking about donating, now’s the perfect time. Help us keep the animals cool and the mission going strong! https://hugsranch.kindful.com/

🧩 “Every piece matters”🧩

Today, as we launched our Summer Sessions, it’s clear that God is already at work.

This year’s theme is all about the puzzle of life and how each of us fits into God’s perfect plan.

We’re also exploring how boundaries aren’t walls—they’re wisdom and strength. They protect what matters and make room for peace, purpose, and connection.

One day in, and we’re already seeing the picture come together!

🎒 Backpack Donations Needed! 🎒

Do you have any backpacks lying around that you no longer need or want? We’d love to take them off your hands!

Summer sessions start next week! We have a fun activity planned that involves the use of backpacks — and we could use a few more!

If you’re able to donate, please drop off your gently used backpacks at the Ranch. We’re open Monday through Thursday each week.

Thank you for helping us make this summer awesome for our participants! ☀️🐎
