Love Never Fails

10/16/2012

This was left here by the family that had graced this land since the 1930’s ~ living, laughing and loving. As I sat on the front steps this morning where this inscription now sits, enjoying a cup of joe with Dusty on my right, Bun Bun on my left, Denver on my feet and Lucy behind me, I was reminded that indeed love never fails. I prayed for a soulmate to celebrate life with, I prayed and I asked the universe to fill in where I may have over looked. I got my soulmate, and the universe filled in so beautifully ~ Daisy Dickens, Dustina Aguilera, John Denver, Tom Clancy, the girls, Princess Bella, GERONIMO and Bun Bun ~ all of us together on The Farm. Love Never Fails.

In the fall of 2011, Mike and I moved to a small farm in Central Illinois where we immediately found ourselves rescuing horses. The rescue was not part of our original plan, but we felt the calling while doing a search for a pair of ponies we did plan on caring for on the farm. Since childhood, my entire extended family and I have been horse owners. Mike and I wanted to continue this tradition. Upon searching the internet for a pair of ponies, we were overwhelmed with the number of horses that needed a rescue and/or a home.

So, enter Princess and Geronimo, the first two rescues. They were both severely malnourished and uncared for. Mike and Nicole adopted them both. To this day, we are still helping them open to all of their best possibilities.

After Princess and Geronimo arrived, a third horse, Hero, came to the farm. At this point we reached capacity on our small farmette, but we knew we weren’t done.

The Farm Way Sanctuary became a non profit Corporation in April of 2014.

It has taken us four years, the birth of our beautiful, horse-ready son, a barn fire, getting outbid on another farm, regrouping our entire family at Maytown Farm, a rockin’ farmraiser, an incredible angel family, Grandma Nancy, and being homeless like little tiny baby Jesus on Christmas Eve to bring us here, to our forever farm in Whiteside County, IL. in the winter of 2016.

This farm is our ideal space to provide sanctuary for horses and other animals in need. As well as, allow The Farm Way Sanctuary to build the facilities needed for programs and programming that educate and minister the spirit and warmth of the horses, mother earth and one another to children, their families, individuals and groups.
