God is SO GOOD! Yesterday, after patiently waiting for several weeks, several of us on our Eagle's Nest Wilderness Ranch team had the opportunity to go onto the property that we circled in prayer by hiking the perimeter last week. The name of the property is King Mountain Ranch. This property is absolutely beautiful! It is very remote and is completely surrrounded by over a million acres of the Arapaho National Forest. It has everything that we would need to get started......lots of room for our kids to explore and recreate on, water and water rights (which is gold in Colorado), pasture land for cattle and horses and several buildings. Whille many of the buildings are in major disrepair and will probably need to be torn down, there are a few that would work to get started until we would have the opportunity and finances to build new ones. It would be an amazing place for our children to grow up!

Will you join us in praying that God would make it possible for us purchase this property? It will take a miracle ... but, we KNOW that God has led us thus far and He is FAITHFUL and ABLE to do so much more than we could ever think or image! (Ephesians 3:20) We are going to take steps of FAITH and continue moving forward to see what God has in mind. Do you want to be a part of this MIRACLE? We hope you will join us on the journey!

A sign from God relative to our new home for Eagle's Nest Wilderness Ranch? Only time will tell, but I must share the story. This past Tuesday members of our ENWR team decided to hike the perimeter of a property that we've felt that God may be leading us to. We wanted to "pray a circle" around it (an idea promoted by a book that we've all read called "The Circle Maker" by Mark Batterson) and determine if this property has all that we will need to accomplish our goals.
... After hiking for about an hour and a half we heard an eagle screeching and then saw it fly right over our heads. Awesome sight! Then, as we continued to watch in awe, another eagle appeared and joined the first one. Really awesome! When they flew out of sight we resumed our hike. After just a few minutes more of hiking, we heard what sounded like baby eagles making noises overhead so we began to scan the trees for a nest. And, sure enough, we spotted it. We scrambled up the side of mountain to see if we could get a better look and upon gaining some elevation we were able to see two baby eagles sitting in the nest (similar to those pictured below). Incredibly awesome sight!!
I said to the rest of the team....can you believe what we're seeing? We are looking at an Eagle's Nest in the Wilderness (the property is bordered by the Arapaho National Forest) next to a Ranch that we're praying about as a potential home for our children. Coincidence...or God??? I'm not a big believer in coincidences!
Would you please join us in praying for this property? We have heard that it is for sale and it seems so perfectly suited to meet our needs, but it also has a pretty large price tag attached to it. Therefore, we also ask for prayers for the funds that will be needed to move ahead. Thanks so much!
