A New Season of Ministry
I’m delighted to share that I am now serving as Interim Pastor at Louisa Presbyterian Church.
This new role feels like a beautiful extension of the work God has already entrusted to me through Beautiful Brokenness Ministries and New Life Horsemanship. Whether I am teaching in a sanctuary, sitting with someone in need of encouragement, or allowing a horse to help illuminate the heart of God, my calling remains the same: to help people encounter the rescuing, redeeming, and reconciling love of Jesus.
I’m grateful to the congregation of Louisa Presbyterian for welcoming me into this season of shared ministry. I look forward to walking alongside them as we listen for God’s direction, care for one another, and explore what it means to live from our new identity in Christ.
I will continue leading the work of Beautiful Brokenness Ministries and New Life Horsemanship while serving the church during this interim season.
Provision for the Road Ahead
We are delighted to share that Beautiful Brokenness Ministries has a new ministry truck!
This much-needed Ford F-250 will help us transport hay, feed, supplies, and equipment for our horses. It significantly strengthens our ability to care for the herd and carry the ministry forward.
This purchase was made possible through an extraordinary gift from people who have asked to remain anonymous. We are deeply grateful for their generosity, their trust in this ministry, and their investment in the work ahead.
This truck is more than a vehicle. It is practical provision for the next season of our mission: Rescued. Redeemed. Reconciled.
Meet Bridger: A Bridge Between Generations
For 25 years, Scooter has served faithfully alongside me (Katy), helping people discover the transforming power of safety, trust, relationship, and love. His life and partnership have shaped the heart of Beautiful Brokenness Ministries and New Life Horsemanship in ways that could never be replaced.
Now 28, Scooter is entering a gentler season. At the other end of the spectrum is four-year-old Rain—full of promise, but still growing into the horse and ministry partner he will become. Bridger has arrived as a connection between them.
Another extraordinary donor came forward because she was concerned for his future. This is Bridger’s 4th home in 4 months.
A 12-year-old Paint gelding and former Montana ranch horse, Bridger brings a personal story of fear, and learning that relationship can be safe. We don’t know what has His name reflects the unique place we believe he will hold: bridging Scooter’s extraordinary legacy with Rain’s unfolding future.
Bridger is not here to replace Scooter—no horse ever could. Instead, we hope he will help me carry forward the picture Scooter and I have spent 25 years helping to teach, while giving Rain the time he needs to mature. I will build my relationship with Bridger at the pace safety allows, honoring his story as he discovers what comes next.
He is a bridge between what has been and what is still becoming—and a living reminder that the only safe horse is a horse who feels safe.
