The
History of the R & R Ranch
It all began in 1991 with a desire to serve the Lord
however we could. Thoughts ran through our heads such
as providing a place where Christians could go when they
needed a place to stay, helping troubled youth and several
other ideas.
We
researched and prayed and finally in 1997 decided to step
out and create the non-profit corporation of The R &
R Ranch and Education Center, Inc.
The
Lord led us to and enabled us to buy a 40 acre parcel
of land in Willcox, Arizona in 1998. By 1999 we were more
or less set up and John began working as a youth pastor
at a local church.
We
learned to listen to the Lord as He seemed to be telling
us not to limit what we wanted to do and over the next
several years we:
*
Had youth come out to the property to work off community
service hours.
*
Provided respite care for youth.
*
Provided transportation to medical appointments to the
elderly.
* Provided
financial assistance to people for medical bills and
prescriptions.
*
Developed a music ministry and began ministering in
the nursing homes.
*
Provided lodging for parole who was a Christian.
*
Provided employment opportunities for ex-cons.
*
Began providing scholarships to young people from the
community attending Christian Colleges.
And
much more!
