One of the basic tenets of the Christian faith is sharing it with others. At our Boys Ranch campus, older youth who embrace their faith have the chance to lead Sunday school for their younger peers. This not only deepens their faith, but reinforces the work Cal Farley’s does every day to teach our youth to build positive relationships with those around them.
Prayer rides offer our Boys Ranch residents an intimately personal way to connect with God, often for the first time in their lives. Led by chapel staff, prayer rides take youth on a silent horseback ride in the rugged landscape surrounding our flagship campus. Each ride culminates with a time of solitude, reflection and prayer.
At Cal Farley’s, the importance of serving others is a concept that’s as much a part of emotional healing as it is a part of religious faith. Our youth are encouraged to participate in group activities that involve serving those less fortunate than themselves. In so doing, they gain a new perspective on their own suffering and learn to identify with Christ’s example.
