Howdy Jesus And Kids Evangelistic Saddle Club – JAKES Club! 
 

Happy Spring, Happy almost Easter and Welcome 2025! Well if you cannot tell JAKES Club winter volunteers are happy winter has almost come to a close. We are very grateful and thankful the horses and facility had a safe winter season with no injuries or repairs needed.
 

Now we are excited and looking forward to a great 2025. Our first quarter Business Meeting scripture was Psalm 16:8 “I have set the LORD always before me” and that is exactly what JAKES Club is going to do for 2025 within every department.

The Equine (horse) department has already began and taken advantage of March and April’s “Thursday Horsey Days” to begin working each horse. Thanks to Jacob Perry (Equine Children’s Director) for a wonderful beginning and report for both Micah and Numbers.

Micah’s report is great! His health and mind set is strong and he is quick to remember and respond. However Number’s report is even greater especially his health! Both horses are schedule for their “Spring Vet Check” in April and we are all anxious to receive Doctor Peddicord, DVM’s report.

Volunteer Saddle Club (VSC) department enrollment has also begun (as weather permits) on Thursdays in April. They are also working with the horses in preparation for May/June programs. JAKES Club is blessed with the best volunteers and we truly give thanks for their support and faithfulness.

Lastly the 2025 TRC-Therapeutic Riding Club enrollment has begun. JAKES Club welcomes back all the fall families and we especially welcome are new family to Fridays TRC 2025 program. Yay!

That’s about it for now. Please remember to pray for the upcoming seasons safety and sharing JAKES Club’s mission statement … reaching children for Jesus one child with one horse at a time.

Happy Easter everyone, “Our Lord has Risen … He has Risen Indeed!”

Sincerely,

Cathie A. Perry and JAKES Club Team
