Today our Prayer & Share request is simple as we head into Labor Day. Take a moment to lift up each house parent, director, social worker and staff member who are called to serve the young people at our Ranches. As always, lift up our Ranchers as they forge relationships and build upon the path God has set before them. Share this as we seek to join all around the state and even the world to lift up our boys and girls in prayer. AMEN

Long weekends look a little different around our Ranches. There are still meals to cook, animals to feed, chores to finish, laughs to share and memories to make. Behind every picture are houseparents and staff who continue showing up for our Ranchers day after day. This Labor Day weekend, we’re especially thankful for the people whose work makes our Ranches feel like home.

This man loves people. He is fearlessly passionate about each and every child at the Ranches and advocates for them. As CEO, he leads by example daily, showing others how to love and empowering those around him. Today is special, because Michael Smith is special, and he’s celebrating a special 70th birthday. Help us return some of the love he shows others on a daily basis. , Michael Smith! Thank you for being so special to .

Our boys and girls across all four Alabama Sheriffs Youth Ranches have officially wrapped up their first week of school and are now heading through Week Two! We’re excited to share a few photos from their first days back in the classroom.

As you look through these pictures, we have one simple request:

Stop and pray for them.

Pray for our children as they learn, grow, make new friends, face challenges, and discover what they’re capable of. Pray for their houseparents, teachers, counselors, and everyone helping guide them along the way.

Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up feeling safe, loved, supported, and hopeful about their future. Your prayers are one of the greatest ways you can support the children who call the Ranches home.

Please continue to lift our boys and girls up in prayer throughout this school year.

Because as we always say:

“It’s easier to build boys and girls than to repair men and women.”

Thank you for helping us build strong futures one child at a time. 🙏❤️

Today was a special day as we celebrated the groundbreaking of South Haven Surgical Plaza in Hoover, a new outpatient healthcare destination serving Hoover and surrounding communities. We are especially grateful to Loree Skelton, who presented the Ranches with a $5,000 donation in loving memory of Fred & Rheta Skelton during today’s celebration.

Loree is not only an incredible supporter of our mission she also serves on the Board of Directors for the Ranches, helping us build brighter futures for Alabama’s children. Her generosity, leadership, and continued belief in the work of the Ranches alongside our community of supporters is what propels us forward. Congratulations to the entire South Haven team on this exciting milestone!
