The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.- Psalm 34:18

Our mission & vision-

To have a safe haven where kids and families who are broken physically, spiritually, and emotionally and broken horses can find common ground where healing can take place and together they learn how to trust, love and function again.

Our long term vision is to have a permanent place with a minimum of 14 acres that we, as a ministry, could have a living facility for kids who have nowhere to go. We can feed them physically and spiritually, clothe, and love them until found a permanent home.

Also a facility where we can bring in hurting and abandoned horses and we can get them back into good health and also find them a loving and permanent home.
To truly be God’s hands and feet to ALL of His Creation.

The ranch is not associated with any particular religious congregation. 
We are a charter ministry under ICCAN (International Cowboy Church Alliance Network).

Rugged Cross Youth Ranch & Rescue is a faith-based organization.

The ranch is founded on the same Judeo-Christian values that our nation was built upon.

Faith on the ranch is "lived" not "preached."

Because the Founders and Board of Directors believe in God and the saving grace of His Son Jesus Christ, it is our greatest desire to serve God by the demonstration of our faith through action by our love for Him and the support of families.

It is our highest honor to serve children and families of all backgrounds.

We are a 501(c) (3)Non-Profit organization,

We are running this ministry on donations only. And we also have a volunteer staff.
