Horse Sponsorship
Who Are We?
The Stables At Creekside Glen is an equine ministry under the umbrella of Meridzo Center Ministries a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation located in the Appalachia area of Eastern KY. We are a ministry that uses the recreational use of a horse to extend the Glory of God to the ends of the earth! We use horses to proclaim the Glory of The Lord while teaching a trade of horsemanship to people of all ages!
How Many Horses do We Board during a Years’ Time?
-
We currently have 20 ministry Horses on the Farm!
-
4 Cows
-
5 Goats
How Are Our Horses Used?
Our Horses here at The Stables are used in many different ways. They are used for:
-
Trail Rides
-
Riding Lessons
-
Horse Camps
-
Therapeutic Riding
-
Birthday Parties
-
Pony Rides for Festivals
-
Local 4-H
-
Rodeos
-
Wrangler 4 Christ Internship Program
-
But ultimately… Our horses have been given to us by God to be used to share the Love of God to our community and abroad! Which is something we love to do!
Through the use of the horses we will have up to if not more than 500 opportunities to share the Gospel throughout the year!
Why Sponsor A Horse?
-
Sponsoring a horse is a wonderful way to be a part of what God is doing through that horse within our equine program!
-
Sponsoring a horse is a unique opportunity to make a difference by directly helping one of our horses!
-
Sponsoring a horse is a way to help if you have limited time, space or finances and can’t commit to a lifetime of horse care.
How Much Does It Cost to Provide for a Horse for a Month?
-
The cost of sponsoring a horse is $ 150.00 per month.
-
This covers all food, farrier, worming and annual vaccinations.
-
You can also part sponsor a horse if you wish.
Horses can be a big expense, but God has been faithful to meet our needs. We are confident He will continue to meet our needs if we continue to use the horses for the purpose of glorifying His name! What we don’t know is how God might use you to help His purpose here through The Stables at Creekside Glen.
