Where Kids Have Fun in "the Son"

Circle Y Ranch provides a setting separate from their daily routine, offering a comforting environment for campers to truly be themselves.

Our Mission

Circle Y Ranch exists to support the Church in developing the next generation of biblically sound and faithful Christ-following leaders, particularly from the African American community.

Our Vision

Circle Y Ranch will be an exceptional biblically based African American training and equipping center that transforms individuals, families, churches and communities with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in order to meet needs, promote just systems, and facilitate biblical reconciliation and unity.
