Roanoke Ranch for Kids
Restoring Hope, Renewing Lives
Our Roots
Roanoke Ranch for Kids began in 2003 when Aaron Decker answered God’s call, birthing a living ministry where horses and the Gospel unite to break down fear and ignite hope and self-worth in every young heart. Partnering with local ministries, we turn faith into fearless action—sowing seeds of courage, truth, and a Christ-centered identity. On the front lines of spiritual warfare, we equip wounded kids and teens to leave their past behind, embrace their God-given worth, and step boldly into their divine purpose, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
Saddling Up Souls for Jesus
Welcome to Roanoke Ranch for Kids!
​
We’re Aaron and Dr. Ginger Decker—husband-and-wife ministry partners who believe horses are God’s gift for healing young hearts.
​
​What began as Aaron’s personal refuge in hard seasons has grown into a shared calling and a kingdom movement: drawing hurting teens and children into Jesus’ arms through equine therapy and a prayerful community—helping each child discover their worth, their purpose, and the One who loves them best.
​
Saddle up with us as we guide young souls toward Christ’s healing grace, one gentle hoof-beat at a time.
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147:3)
At Roanoke Ranch for Kids, we witness the healing power of horses in action: these gentle giants mirror God’s own touch, helping kids and teens find courage, hope, and the promise of new life in Jesus.
