“A Unique Opportunity for You & Your Family!”

 

BASIC  INFORMATION

 

Our normal policy is as follows, though we can be flexible according to your needs.  We will give you an ‘up-front cost' before you come, or we come to you, by phone & email.

 

CONFERENCES, EVENTS, SPECIAL SERVICES: Please call us!  First and foremost, we have family obligations such as schooling!  We homeschool our younger ones, and others are in college here in Tate County.  Coupled with ranch responsibilities, church obligations, plus music practices and commitments, these all require that we plan prudently. (We certainly do not want to establish chaotic patterns of life and un-do the very things that we have strived to attain!)  This said, please do talk to us! We usually receive an honoraria or love-offering, as appropriate.

 

GUESTHOUSE: $125/night, up to four adults.  (Children are no additional cost)  The house

sleeps eight comfortably—each additional adult, $25.  Our guests are just that, our guests,

   not customers who just rent a place for the night.  We are a family operation, not an impersonal company or business!

 

 

MEALS: The guesthouse has a full kitchen for your use.  We suggest that you bring something 'quick & easy' and enjoy the atmosphere here. 

Or, we can recommend some nice restaurants 15 minutes or so away, also.  We usually can offer homemade muffins or bread (with home-grown jams & jellies, as available)  and juice  for breakfast.

 

 

HORSEBACK RIDING, ETC.:  We find it best to schedule specific times for any trail riding.

 Each ride is up to 1.5 hours.  Normally we charge $50 for adults,and $25 for children (up through age 12) for these rides.   We can usually offer an inclusive ‘combination’ fee or package.  All riders will sign a waiver indicating their riding experience, and releasing liability, in accordance with Mississippi law.

 

 

MARRIAGE & FAMILY COUNSELING: Brad conducts Biblical counseling in 1½ hour sessions, according to your expressed needs.  

Fees are on a sliding scale based on client household income.  Again, we can offer an inclusive combination and discount specific fees. Please ask. We are experienced in marriage and family matters (9 children!)--Brad having worked in this field in ministry since 1990, both having worked with young couples since 1981--but we are not licensed psychologists, psychiatrists, or medical practitioners.  It is our experience that the great majority of  folks we have worked with need direction, perspective, and "how-to's", not medical or clinical care. We do not accept any insurance coverage. We will further explain this and ask you to sign an acknowledgement.  

 

AVAILABLE E-BOOKS:  

"Parent Sense"--Proven, Practical Help For Dads & Moms!  (How To Recognize & Respond To Wrong Attitudes & Misbehaviors)

 "Submission--Properly Understood, Properly Applied" (Sound, Balanced, Biblical Guidance For An Often-Misunderstood Concept)

We can email these to you (PDF Format). We have been happily married since 1981, have had 2 year olds for almost a decade, and now have 6 teenagers! We guarantee that this material will help you in areas of real need!  Call 662-562-6929, or email us, us today!
