What an unexpected blessing this was!

Looks like a lot of people think our "Cowboy Church" is working!

Services on Sunday morning @ 10:30 here @ the ranch!

 

 

We are not having a horse show this April... the attendance has been down and we must

re-evaluate if we can afford to continue having them!

We look forward to the shows, but they haven't been cost effective for the last two years!

We love doing them so please PRAY that we can find a way... Thanks!

We look forward to working this out... and seeing all of you real soon!

Thanks to the Valero Energy Corporation and North Park Toyota of San Antonio, we now have this beautiful Cremello Stallion standing @ stud here at MorningStar Ranch. He was foaled April of 2006 in Kentucky and came to us from Lauren Branas, a horse trainer in Alabama. Thanks to Valero providing the fuel and North Park Toyota loaning us a "Texas built" Tundra (and that is one nice truck) we were able to meet in Mississippi and make the trade for this rare stallion. His previous owner fell in love with one of our rescued Clydesdale crosses that she saw on our web site and offered the trade. Thanks to our friends we were able to make the trip without putting any financial burden on the ministry.

GOD has given us a wonderful teaching on "Submission to Master" demonstrated by Pastor Jim's teaching on the Biblical principles of submission as we bring an untrained horse to the point of submission. It shows the difference between a newly broken horse and a horse that has learned to listen to it's master's voice... it is a powerful visual demonstration. Below are YouTube video's of "Submission to Master" in action.

~

We are frequently blest with the opportunity to take our horses to schools, churches, retreats and other outings to teach the biblical principles of Submission to Master. Email us for more information about how you or your organization can arrange to schedule this powerful demonstration.

The ranch environment supplies so many opportunities unavailable in a church setting. There are so many Biblical principles to be taught and demonstrated to both young and old through the animals and the land itself. GOD is using this ranch ministry to restore families, build strong disciples and mentor young inner city kids. With your help we can impact those in need of what GOD is doing through MSRM... we are making a difference, a real difference, a lasting difference... MSRM is changing lives forever and saving souls for HIS kingdom.

GOD blest us with the opportunity to put Joe Gatzke back in the saddle again, one last time! Joe at 88 years of age went home to be with the LORD at 1:30 A.M. August 22, 2008... he was one of the last remaining "horse soldiers" from WWII... and is now riding the heavens with our LORD!

What a privilege that was and we thank the staff @ Legend Oaks Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, here in San Antonio, for letting us fulfill Joe's desire to get on a horse one last time before he went home!

It was an experience we will never forget... and an honor we will thank GOD for daily!

If GOD lays in on your heart to help us continue to touch lives through these wonderful animals... PLEASE "click" on the donate button below and it wouldn't hurt to spread the word to others who may not know about us. We would appreciate you telling all you can. Thanks and GOD bless.

Here @ MSRM we do all we can to be good stewards

of the financial blessings HE provides!

Because what we do is not cost effective... and is tremendously labor intensive... many ask... "WHY DO YOU DO IT?" Well an ancient axiom says, "One picture is worth a thousand words." Here is our answer in several thousand words!!

~

Volunteers like Naomi help us touch the lives of young people like Vincent and David in ways words can not express!

We were given the opportunity to host young exchange students from

Germany, France, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Switzerland

and the Ukrane...

We love watching "city folk" experience GOD's majestic creations

no matter what part of the world they come from.

This precious little Alpaca's registered name is FFTX Bandera... we call him "Bandy" and he is one of the newest additions to our ministry family.

He was provided through the generosity of Fantasy Farms Alpacas in Boerne, Texas.

There was great fun and fellowship had by all!

Fifteen years ago, MorningStar Ranch started as a small not-for-profit ministry using animals to help families and at-risk youth grow, both in confidence and in GOD's Spirit. Over the year's, it has been your generosity that has allowed us to move to a permanent location in Southwest Bexar County, near Somerset. The ministry now includes horses, llamas, pot-bellied pigs, pygmy goats, donkeys, ducks, geese and more... much, much more... all co-existing peacefully in a setting that includes a Petting Zoo, Cowboy Church, trail rides, and a great little "Fishing Hole." MorningStar Ranch is completely supported by those who are moved to further HIS work through this unique ministry. Completely operated by donations and volunteers, your Tax-deductable donations will further GOD's work throughout the coming year. For more information, call and arrange a visit. We would be love to show you the magnificent ways that GOD is using these animals through this ministry... which has now grown to a world wide ourtreach... all made possible by friends like you.

The number to call is 210 624 2929

Without the generous support of those of you who see our efforts and understand that most of the people we reachout to cannot financially support the services we provide... we would not be able to continue. If you would like to join in supporting our efforts and help with the care and feeding of all these animals that touch so many lives, you can do so by simply "clicking" on the Visa-MasterCard button below.
