STABLE HAVEN

EQUINE THERAPY

Stable Haven is a ground breaking program, it’s the only YFC ministry in Canada using equine therapy as a way to bring HOPE to kids.  Equine therapy has been very successful in helping people walk through personal trauma and improve mental health.  Maxine Harder is leading this innovative ministry, and she has recently become certified in EAL (Equine Assisted Learning).  With this certification, Maxine is now able to bring students through various exercises with the horses, overcoming challenges and obstacles, and learning valuable skills along the way.  The beautiful part of Stable Haven is the opportunity Maxine has to point these students to Jesus as they tackle these personal challenges together.

However, this innovative ministry has had it’s own share of hurdles.  For the past year YFC has been trying unsuccessfully to secure the insurance needed to operate.  This has been a huge discouragement, as Stable Haven can’t officially start until the insurance is in place.  After so many closed doors, we were beginning to wonder if Stable Haven will ever be a reality.

But two weeks ago we got news that changed everything!

WE GOT THE INSURANCE!!

We are so excited to tell you that WE ARE IN FINAL STAGES OF FINALIZING THE INSURANCE!   God has answered our prayers! This means that very shortly Stable Haven will be fully operating!  Praise God for this huge breakthrough!

THE COST FOR THE INSURANCE POLICY WILL BE APPROXIMATELY $1200/YEAR. USE THE DONATION FORM BELOW TO HELP US!

We will also need to buy a few more helmets.  If you are able to help us out in this way, please contact Maxine.
