We are overjoyed to announce that our van initiative for our triplet mom is fully funded! Many of us don't ever have to think about how we will get our families from point A to point B, but for many of our moms, this is a huge obstacle. Your generosity has removed that obstacle for her and her family, and we cannot thank you enough for helping us make this happen for her. It takes a village, and we're grateful you are ours!

Triplet Update! 💙🍼

Our triplet mama is getting moved in and preparing to bring her three little bundles home from the NICU very soon!

We are grateful to our community for rallying around this mom and her children. You helped us provide her with a safe home and important resources and tools that equip her to move through the newborn days ahead feeling supported.

They’ve always said it takes a village, and we've seen that proven true through you.

Welcome home, mama. 🏠

We love getting to provide a wide array of services to the moms that come through our program, but arguably one of the most influential opportunities we are able to provide for them is safe housing.

For many moms that enter our program, finding a place for their children with multiple bedrooms, and in a safe community with other moms walking similar paths, is just not possible. In fact, BHR was founded in part due to a gap in services of this kind in the DFW area!

We’re grateful to serve these moms in this way, because we’ve seen again and again that so much of what someone needs to grow and flourish begins with a safe place to call home. When a mom and her children have stability and security, it creates the foundation for healing, growth, and a hopeful future.

We are grateful for the many ways our community rallies around us and the families in our care; there is no limit to generosity of time, talent, and finances. One of the most meaningful ways you can support us? Pray for us!

Here are our April prayer requests:

🙏 One of our moms and her two girls are getting ready to graduate and be independent at the end of June! Pray that the Lord would bless and direct their transition.

🙏 Our sweet triplets will be in NICU until closer to their due date this spring. Pray for continued healthy growth and no complications.

Thank you for praying with us!

Meet our Founder and Executive Director, Aubrey Schlackman!

As Founder and Executive Director of Blue Haven Ranch, Aubrey Schlackman grew up going to the church camp that her grandparents founded in New Mexico called Camp Blue Haven. Growing up in that environment every summer taught her the value of faith, family, the importance of community, and how the Lord can speak and heal through nature.

After having her first two children, Aubrey realized she had a passion to serve single pregnant mothers and their children in a similar way that her grandparents legacy had begun... to create a community built around faith, family, and community in God's beautiful creation here in North Texas.

She is married to Bryan Schlackman who has helped to co-found Blue Haven Ranch, and they, with their 3 children, use their personal farm to host BHR programs every week.

What happens if they’re gone?

We want our moms to feel equipped for the many years ahead of leading their children, and we do this through a variety of different facets.

One that we feel strongly about is our farm therapy program. Not only is it a unique and powerful way to help them move through the trauma they’ve experienced, but it also equips them for career opportunities they would have otherwise not considered.

Teaching our moms how to live sustainable lives through growing their own food sets them up for the future in a really unique and effective way. Through this, we hope to encourage the next generation of farmers and ranchers, too.

We asked, and you answered (and blew us away!)

In just 24 hours, your generosity, prayer, and willingness to share, an amount that felt big became an even bigger testimony of provision almost overnight! This dependable vehicle will now serve as a bridge for a mom who is courageously rebuilding her life.

You didn’t just purchase a vehicle, you removed a barrier and strengthened her confidence. You showed her that she is not walking this road alone.

Thank you for responding so quickly and faithfully.

We are so grateful to Living Word Lutheran Church in Grapevine for their generosity! 13 large moving boxes of diapers, wipes, baby clothes, and pack n play donations! These practical items go a LONG way! What a gift to be a part of a community that stands in the gap for those in need!
