We’re so excited to share that our founder, Ashley Boswell, is a contributing author in When the Plan Changes: Trusting God’s Story Over Our Own. A new book from Hope Books. Ashley’s chapter shares the story of Jacob, an Arabian horse who was part of Shepherd Youth Ranch from its early days and whose life touched and changed so many people at the Ranch. Though Jacob passed away a few years ago, his story continues to remind us of the ways God can use unexpected circumstances, people, and even horses to write something greater than we could have planned. We’re honored to have a piece of the Shepherd Youth Ranch story included in this special collection. 🤍 📖 Pre-order your copy: link in bio 📅 Book Launch: Tuesday, November 10 at 7 PM 💻 Hope Books Facebook Live

A huge thank you to the Acorn Design Group for coming out and volunteering with us last week! 🤍 Their team spent the day helping with much-needed service projects around the ranch including mending fences, mowing, weed eating, and so much more. They made such a positive impact, and we are so grateful for their support of SYR! We also loved getting to spend time together with some fun team-building activities afterward🤍 Thank you all for your hard work, kindness, and willingness to serve our ranch community!
