The Horsemanship Mission teaches young men foundational horse-handling skills while showing them how obedience to God brings guidance, confidence, and blessing.
Practical Purpose: Equip young men with safe, hands-on horsemanship experience while developing character, confidence, and discipline.
Boys Will Learn:
How to understand, approach, and communicate with a horse—including grooming, tack use, and barn safety.
Beginner riding skills such as mounting, posture, rein control, steering, and stopping.
Key character qualities horses naturally teach: patience, responsibility, respect, and calm leadership.
Projects:
Grooming and caring for a horse: brushing, cleaning hooves, identifying anatomy, and preparing tack.
Practicing foundational riding skills in a controlled, supervised environment.
Participating in demonstrations, barn tours, and optional trail-ride or extended practice sessions.
Spiritual Goals:
Understand obedience to God through the picture of horse and rider—trust, direction, and willing submission.
See how God uses discipline and guidance to shape strong, steady young men (James 3:3; Proverbs 1:5).
Learn that God blesses those who listen to His voice and follow His lead (Deuteronomy 28:1; John 3:36).
