Program Description
Operating
year round since 1962, the Flying H Youth Ranch is currently serving up
to 25 boys, emphasizing concern for helping entire families and encouraging
faith in Jesus Christ and the Bible.
Residents often come with little ability to build meaningful relationships,
control impulses,
achieve academically, or form responsible moral codes. Our program addresses
many social
problems of our day including: divorced family issues; single parent issues;
adoptive family
issues; poor academic achievement, along with many others.
The focus of this program is primarily on character development as defined
by Biblical standards.
The development of character is measured through interaction between the
staff and the residents in the following categories;
- Respect for authority
- Following instructions
- Treating others in a loving way
- Putting forth the effort to change attitudes and actions for the better
- Seeking trustworthiness
- Using your abilities to encourage and serve
- Seeking wisdom
- Using abilities to love
- Making right what was made wrong
- Persevering
