It's a nice day to ride a horse.

Nick spoke at a Youth For Christ function today. It was for their Horse Camp.  They take young students, with or without experience of horses, and introduce them each to one and for a week, with a wrangler,  learn to take care of it.  The students loved it.  At the end of the week there is an award ceremony, and each student is given a Bible and a picture with them and their horse.  The leaders of YFC asked Nick to give a gospel presentation today.  And at the end he asked if anyone had said the sinner's prayer with him for the first time, and a young man raised his hand and said he had accepted Christ as his personal Savior. AMEN!!!  He didn't even go to the camp this week, he was a family member of one of the student's.  And immediately he asked how he could volunteer  ( because, he said, aren't I suppose to do that, as a Christian?)  Good man.  So this next week he is going to be helping with new students. Praise the Lord! 

We aren't horse people, but those students sure looked like they were having a blast, even if it was raining and cold.  Next Saturday, Nick is speaking again and we were told that Zech will be able to ride on one of the horses.  He's pretty excited about that.
