Our February ride was in the Apache Junction = area close=20 to the Superstition Mountains. This had to be one of the = most=20 beautiful rides we have been on. (There was a carpet of = green rarely=20 seen, right up to the base of the majestic Superstitions). = Eleven=20 RFC members started out at 10 AM, encountering paths past = boulders=20 as big as houses, and up along high ridges overlooking = Apache=20 Junction and the surrounding area below. Around noon we = stopped at a=20 quiet pond, ate our snacks and rested. A short devotion was = given,=20 and then, after allowing the horses to drink and splash in = the=20 water, we started back. We got to our trailers around 3 pm, = held the=20 usual raffle, and then leisurely loaded up for the trip=20 home.

Frequently after a ride, some, or all of us, = will stop=20 at a restaurant for an early dinner and more fellowship. We = just=20 have such a good time on the rides that we hate to give up = the=20 day!

If you get a chance to ride with us we would = love to=20 have you. Which reminds me =96 we have new insurance, our = policy=20 covers guest riders for seven months out of the year, = January=20 through June, and October. If you want to ride with us = during the=20 other months you will need to become a member. Our annual = dues are=20 only $25, (about what you spend for dinner out on a Saturday = night),=20 so, if you are a guest, why not just join and ride with us = whenever=20 you like?

The members of the Riders For Christ have a = desire=20 to use their horses in a ministry to show others the love of = God and=20 their need of salvation through Jesus Christ. If this is = your desire=20 we invite you to ride with us.
