Concrete and Fingernails
Elena fills up another load of concrete as part of the concrete slab pour.
Opening up bags is a messy business. To keep things moving smoothly Kayla is preparing multiple bags
The tricky thing with concrete is getting it all to set at the same time. That means moving fast and setting up sections while they are still wet.
Families like Diego’s who live hear His Wings Ranch (in teh background) are positioned to help one another with childcare and community.
Point Loma University Visits
Cambria Hunter and her husband Bob came down with 3 students from Point Loma University. You may have heard Cambria’s name before because she has also brought down students from other universities including Huntington University in June of this year. They are not only fantastic with the kids but create their own video after they complete their time!
Two New Horses
When it rains it pours. Not just one but two horses were donated to His Wings this last week. They look identical on first glance but Luna has the black mane and Hurley has the light brown mane. Both will be great therapy horses with Hurley taking the lead with Jaciel already training him. They were donated by Missionary couple DJ and Lynette Schuetze who live just an hour away from His Wings. They will bridge the gap between our existing therapy horses Chonita and Saphira and the up an coming little horses born at the ranch in the last 2 years Sadie, Nala and Brooklyn. They are being trained up but it will still be a number of years until they are ready.
Nearly a dozen people from the dinner let us know they would like to pray for Sue and His Wings Ranch on a regular basis. One idea suggested is a monthly prayer group that meets via Zoom. The leader would run the group and coordinate with Sue regarding the needs at the ranch. If you’d like to lead the group let me know. Or if you’d like to join the group let me know that too.
