Good thing they had Jayden at the ranch, one afternoon, she noticed in one of the pens, 3 deer had died and several others were near death and many were crazy acting, running into fences and staggering. Jayden discovered the problem right away... an empty water trough. A water trough had been shut off earlier in the week and never got turned back on. The deer were dying of thirst. The instant reaction was to fill up the trough, but Jayden advised to do it a little at a time. If the animals were that dehydrated, consuming all that water would have killed many more. Hour after hour they only let them drink a little at a time. The worst part, the deer that die on the ranch must be reported and taken in to the local vet for autopsy, and only the head is needed. The rest I will leave to your imagination. Once again only the women were home.
While Jayden was back at the ranch saving animals, Noah, his brother, his dad, and his dad's best friend and son all went on a Christian retreat called "The Walk". It is no ordinary retreat, it is an unplugged escape with all of your time and focus on the Lord and his word. Jayden was excited for him to go. She asked me to write a letter for Noah and one for his dad. They each needed to have several letters that they would open during the retreat. I was excited for Noah to go too and prayed throughout the weekend that his heart would be open to God's word and that God would transform his life. For 4 days they have no contact with anyone outside the retreat
