MorningStar Ranch is delighted to be able to share our animals, through our Petting Zoo and Pony Parties, with schools, churches, organizations and family outings, birthday parties and special events... both kids and adults love the hands on experience.
And our animals love the attention... for information about how you

MorningStar Ranch, located just outside San Antonio, Texas in the small town of Somerset, Texas is a USDA Licensed, not-for-profit Texas corporation and all funds raised from Pony Parties and Petting Zoos go to help feed our rescued animals! <t
Somewhere in the midst of those kids is a miniature horse!
This is the fourth year we have been honored to provide our Petting Zoo animals for special events and activities at this wonderful theme park here in San Antonio, Texas that provides a safe, clean and beautiful environment free of physical and economic barriers that all individuals, regardless of age, special need or disability, can come to and enjoy. One of our board members, Leslie White, opened that door four years ago and we have been afforded the opportunity to give a multitude of people a new and wonderful, hands on experience with our petting zoo animals at Morgan\'s Wonderland.
Because what we do is not cost effective... and is tremendously labor intensive... many ask... "WHY DO YOU DO IT?" Well an ancient axiom says, "One picture is worth a thousand words." Here is our answer in several thousand words!!
~
These precious animals help us touch lives through our Petting Zoo and Pony Parties, like Vincent and David in ways words can not express!
And age is not an issue... both young and old love the feeling of freedom when
they are sitting on a horse brings them... which is what truly makes our Pony Parties and Petting Zoos special!
At one of our Petting Zoo events, GOD blest us with the opportunity to put Joe Gatzke back in the saddle again, one last time! Joe at 88 years of age went home to be with the LORD at 1:30 A.M. August 22, 2008... he was one of the last remaining "horse soldiers" from WWII... and is now riding the heavens with our LORD!
What a privilege that was and we thank the staff @ Legend Oaks Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, here in San Antonio, Texas for letting us fulfill Joe\'s desire to get on a horse one last time before he went home!
It was an experience we will never forget... and an honor we will thank GOD for daily!

GOD has given us a wonderful teaching on "Submission to Master" demonstrated by Pastor Jim\'s teaching on the Biblical principles of submission as we bring an untrained horse to the point of submission. It shows the difference between a newly broken horse and a horse that has learned to listen to it\'s master\'s voice... it is a powerful visual demonstration. Below are YouTube video\'s of "Submission to Master" in action.
~
We are frequently blest with the opportunity to take our horses to schools, churches, retreats and other outings to teach the biblical principles of Submission to Master. Email us for more information about how you or your organization can arrange to schedule this powerful demonstration.
The ranch environment supplies so many opportunities unavailable in a church setting. There are so many Biblical principles to be taught and demonstrated to both young and old through the animals and the land itself. GOD is using this ranch ministry to restore families, build strong disciples and mentor young inner city kids. With your help we can impact those in need of what GOD is doing through MSRM... we are making a difference, a real difference, a lasting difference... MSRM is changing lives forever and saving souls for HIS kingdom.

Here @ MSRM we do all we can to be good stewards
of the financial blessings HE provides!
We were given the opportunity to host young exchange students from
Germany, France, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Switzerland
and the Ukraine...
We love watching "city folk" experience GOD\'s majestic creations in our Petting Zoo
no matter what part of the world they come from.
This precious little Alpaca\'s registered name is FFTX Bandera... we call him "Bandy" and he is one of the most unique additions to our ministry family.
He was provided through the generosity of Fantasy Farms in Boerne, Texas.
There was great fun and fellowship had by all!

Twenty-one years ago, MorningStar Ranch started here in San Antonio, Texas as a small not-for-profit ministry using our animals to help families and at-risk youth grow, both in confidence and in GOD\'s Spirit. Over the year\'s, it has been your generosity that has allowed us to move to a permanent location in Southwest Bexar County, in Somerset, Texas just southwest of San Antonio (sa tx). The ministry now includes horses, a guanaco, llamas, alpacas, pot-bellied pigs, pygmy goats, donkeys, ducks, chickens and more... much, much more... all co-existing peacefully in a setting that includes Petting Zoos, and Pony Parties. MorningStar Ranch is completely supported by those who are moved to further HIS work through this unique ministry. Completely operated by donations and volunteers, your Tax-deductable donations will further GOD\'s work throughout the coming year. For more information, call us here in SATX and schedule a Petting Zoo and/or a Pony Party. We would be love to show you the magnificent ways that GOD is using these animals through this ministry... which has now grown to a world wide outreach... all made possible by friends like you. The numbers to call (in sa tx) are: 210 279 6747 or 210 723 8161. Without the generous support of those of you who see our efforts and understand that most of the people we reach out to cannot financially support the services we provide... we would not be able to continue. If you would like to join in supporting our efforts here in sa tx and help with the care and feeding of all these animals that touch so many lives, you can do so by simply "clicking" on the Visa-MasterCard button below or scheduling a Pony Party and/or a Petting Zoo. We provide our Petting Zoos and Pony Parties throughout the San Antonio, Tx and surrounding area.
