We are excited to invite you to The River’s Edge Ranch Annual Gala—an unforgettable evening where we celebrate God’s miraculous work, honor lives transformed, and look ahead with bold faith to what He is still able to do. This year’s theme, “The Sky Is The Limit,” reminds us that when we trust God fully, there is no boundary to what He can accomplish.
As we reflect on the countless men whose lives have been restored through God’s grace at the Ranch, we are filled with renewed hope for the future. What may seem impossible by human standards becomes possible when surrendered to Him. Together, we continue our mission to provide a place of healing, restoration, and new beginnings for men overcoming addiction—believing that God’s power reaches far beyond what we can imagine.
“With man this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." - Matthew 19:26
