📅 Date: Friday, October 17th
🕕 Time: 4 pm - 7 pm
📍 Location: H.U.G.S. Ranch - come in through the welcome center!

This is more than a farewell — it’s a celebration of all that God has done through these past 19 years. Come share memories, reconnect with staff and volunteers, and say goodbye to your favorite horses.

Enjoy a light meal and good company as we look back on all God has done.

Thank You from the Heart

I've been so overwhelmed - in the best way - by all the love, kind words, memories, and prayers that have poured in since we shared the news of my resignation and the closing of HUGS Ranch after 19 beautiful years.

Your support has meant more than I can say. It's a reminder of how deeply this ministry has touched lives - not just through horses, by through hope, healing, and faith.

We're currently working through the next steps and want you to know that we're committed to making thoughtful, loving decisions - especially when it comes to our incredible horses.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with us through this journey. Though HUGS Ranch is closing its doors, its impact will live on in so many hearts - including mine.

With love and gratitude,
Lisa

This week, we had some beautiful conversations in our sessions—honest reflections on both the challenges and the joys we face in life. It was a time of connection, support, and shared hope.

As we continue walking together through the ups and downs, we’d love to invite you to be part of our Prayer Circle Group. Every month, we send out a short email with our current prayer requests — our own challenges and praises for the joys we’re celebrating here at the Ranch.

💌 If you’d like to join our prayer circle to receive a monthly email, here is the link to sign up! https://www.hugsranch.org/prayer-circle

☀️ “He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul.” – Psalm 23:2-3

Today’s gentle reminder: Just like these horses resting in God’s creation, we’re invited to slow down, breathe deep, and trust in His care.

July Photo Dump!

Last week, these amazing kids were introduced to our herd—making new four-legged friends and learning about boundaries and building trust.

This week, they’re stepping up to the challenge: working through obstacle courses with their horses as they begin to gather the pieces to their own puzzle—learning confidence, faith, and connection along the way.

Stay tuned as their journey unfolds!
