Stewardship of Shaky Ground
It's marvelous that the Church of the Brethren Outdoor Ministries supports the total ministry of the church including education, evangelism, peace education, and stewardship of all resources.

Bull Riding For Jesus
Jon Bisset, who is one part cowboy and one part Christian missionary, is the owner of River Valley Ranch in Carroll County, Maryland. Bisset's grandfather started the ranch after immighttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifrating to the United States from Scotland in the 1920s.
"He always had a fondness for the American cowboy, and he was a minister down in Baltimore city," Bisset said. "He saw a lot of kids getting in trouble during the summer time and thought this might be an opportunity to reach out to the kids of Baltimore city in a unique way." So his grandfather started RVR, the first dude ranch on the East Coast, reaching out with the gospel to kids who ordinarily wouldn't step foot in a church, Bisset said.
