"Being able to serve alongside your spouse in a such a tangible way - getting dirty, hauling hay, and weed eating round pens may seem insignificant, but for us it has been so powerful. In the future, when hard situations arise or tragedy hits, I know Josiah and I will be able to work together, with Christ, to overcome those challenges because of what we’ve accomplished already at the ranch. We’ve learned to communicate better, and I have learned how to follow Josiah’s leadership when I am unsure on how to proceed" (Brie, 2017 Volunteer)
