For those who couldn't attend our ribbon cutting, we're excited to take you on a behind-the-scenes tour of our new Connection Center and highlight the details that make this space so special.
Today, we're starting at the very top… the third-floor that we call The Studio.
Designed for our pre-teens and teens ages 10–18, The Studio is a creative space where young people can explore their interests, express themselves, and simply be kids. From art and music to hands-on projects and creative outlets, this room was built with them in mind.
What makes this space even more meaningful is the story behind it.
The Studio was made possible through the generosity of the friends and family of Mr. Wally Pollich. Wally spent his life serving others, and he especially had a heart for teenagers and hurting people. At his memorial service, his family requested that donations be made to the Ranch in lieu of flowers.
What they didn't know was that at the very same time, we were praying and believing God for the resources to transform this room into a dedicated space for our teens.
As He so often does, God worked all things together for good.
Because of this incredible gift, The Studio became a reality. Mr. Wally's legacy will continue to impact lives for years to come as countless young people walk through these doors, discover their gifts, and find a place where they belong.
His handprint is forever on this ministry, and we're so grateful♥️
