Jubalee Ranch
Some information on where we are staying:
Jubalee Ranch is 650 acres, 15 minutes southwest of Corpus Christi, Tx. The ranch is located in the Chapman Ranch area and borders the King Ranch. We have 7 species of deer, horses, miniature donkeys and horses, cows, goats and several other domestic animals. The ranch also has feral hogs, coyotes, bobcats, turkeys, hawks and various other wild animals.
John and Tammy Hearn, owners of the Jubalee entities, believe that everything they have, their assets and their talents, are blessings from God and belong to Him. When they were blessed with Jubalee Ranch...they asked God " What do you want us to do with this, how can we serve?" The answer was to open their home and ranch to youth.
We are very thankful the Lord has given us this connection!
