His Mountaintop Ministries is a nonprofit equine-assisted services organization based in Lincoln, California, offering therapeutic and adaptive horsemanship programs for individuals with physical, cognitive, emotional, and developmental challenges. The program is built around the belief that horses can provide powerful emotional, mental, and physical healing through structured, compassionate interaction.
The organization operates both a riding center and mobile outreach programs, bringing horse-assisted experiences to individuals who are unable to travel to the facility. Its mission focuses on creating joy, confidence, and meaningful connection through horse-based therapy in a supportive and inclusive environment.
About This Program
His Mountaintop Ministries provides equine-assisted activities designed to support individuals with a wide range of diagnoses, including autism, PTSD, cerebral palsy, developmental delays, traumatic brain injury, and other physical or emotional conditions.
Programs include therapeutic riding, adaptive horsemanship, and specialized “Cheer-Up Therapy,” which brings horses directly to participants in hospitals, care facilities, and homes when needed. The organization also offers a driving program for individuals who are unable to ride, allowing them to interact with and control a horse-drawn cart in a safe, structured way.
The overall approach emphasizes emotional connection, confidence-building, and providing a joyful, relaxed environment away from clinical or hospital settings.

Facility and Setting
His Mountaintop Ministries operates from a ranch-based facility in Lincoln, California, with additional mobile outreach services that extend programs into the community. The main site provides space for riding sessions, horse interaction, and structured equine activities in a rural, calm environment.
The setting is designed to be welcoming and non-clinical, helping participants feel comfortable and supported while engaging with horses. For those unable to travel, the program’s mobile units bring miniature and full-sized horses directly to care facilities and homes.
What Makes Them Unique
His Mountaintop Ministries stands out for its strong emphasis on accessibility through mobile equine therapy services, allowing participants who are homebound or medically fragile to still experience horse-assisted interaction.
Another defining feature is its broad range of adaptive programs, including both riding and driving options, which makes participation possible even for individuals who cannot ride. The ministry’s focus on joy, emotional healing, and inclusive access gives it a distinct mission-driven identity within equine-assisted services.
