| Enoch Ministries is a Christian based program that began as a passion to share with others the many blessings and opportunities that many have not had. Leigh Ellen’s passions for children, especially underprivileged and/or abused, led her to construct Enoch Ministries. The facility is being built and hopes to open its doors in 2007. This non- profit program has many facets. With the use of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, Art Therapy and Play Therapy we expect great beginnings to come forth. Horses offer freedom and encourage individuality. They not only love unconditionally, but without bias , prejudice or condemnation. They give children the chance to explore who they are while learning the responsibility of caring for an animal. Horses have an unconditional love and a gentle nature that soothes the soul and allows individuals to experience freedom. Inspired by the submission of these powerful animals, individuals will begin to build trust and understand how to set rules and boundaries that will create more respectful relationships, not just with the animals, but with people as well. This facility will consist of a main barn, covered riding hall, outdoor ring, art building for the labs, shed for farm equipment, a cross country and stadium course, and about 100 acres fenced. In the main barn there will be ten indoor stalls, wash area, feed, tack, laundry room, play therapy rooms, and office spaces. We are actively trying to raise money for this facility to be built and all donations are tax deductible. With your help and prayers, this dream can become a reality for many. For more information on how you can help please contact Leigh Ellen Ertle. |

It is a collaborative treatment team of a mental health professional, horse professional, and the horse. Together they provide an emotionally and physically safe environment wherein a client can grow, learn, and heal experientially in the process. |
