| Our Family |
| Big Bear Farm Big Bear Farm is a 300 acre farm where God's peace can be felt moving across the rolling hills and the still lake. With ever hoof beat you can feel the passion by which God created this land. Big Bear is a family built and a family run farm. Since 1982 our family has operated from this location. We have raised cattle, Quarter horses, Warmbloods, and Connemaras. We have run horse shows, clinics, camps, the Big Bear Country Fair, hosted Olympic teams and operated a metal manufacturing shop for barns. Leigh Ellen Roberts, now managing the farm, has directed the focus on the farm to Enoch Ministries. Who is my family? Well let me tell you about them. They are my strongest supporters. I can't remember anything that I attempted in life that I questioned my ability to do because my family was always behind me telling me that I could do it. If I found something to be more challenging then I first thought everyone pitched in to find success for all. We are a family. We look out for one another. Oh yes we argue, but when in need we are so tight we are truly one. My Father is Ronny Roberts. He is retired now. He wore many hats in his life as a butcher, Vietnam Veteran, Air Traffic Controller, owner of West Atlanta Marine, owner of Big Bear Manufacturing Plant, and various other jobs. He was determined to build a life for his family and children that would set them up for success and he did. My Mom is Mary Ellen Roberts. She has worked as an Administrative Assistant for my father's businesses, the family farm, and now the church in town. She is the glue that holds our family together. She is the most generous person I know. She can set boundaries in a way that feels like an encouragement. She is truly gifted in her ability to love with the Father's Love. I trust her with all that I am. Then there is us kids. Ron Roberts, my oldest brother, is a spirited individual who has more passion for life than the rest of us can contain. He truly lives every moment of his life. He is a very gifted and intelligent person. He has worked in government positions as a planner, grant writer, and various other networking positions. He is artistic and loves the outdoors. Though most of his jobs take him indoors his heart is on the farm. Ron is the sandpaper that rubs my ruff edges until they are polished. I appreciate him. John is our middle. He, like my mom, is very well grounded and stable. He is married with two children, Justin and Brooke. He and his wife Tina live in Rome Ga. John was my protector growing up. I am at a loss for words as to how to explain that John is a friend that is always there without fail. He is full of compassion and forgives before he has had a chance to get angry. He an awesome father. I am very proud of him as I am all of my family. Then finally comes me. I am Leigh Ellen Roberts. I am the manager of Big Bear Farm and Enoch Ministries is my passion. I Love God, my family, and my animals and am very excited in what the future holds for us all. Big Bear was a cattle farm when we moved here. We built barns, arenas, stadium jumps, cross country courses, and raised some awesome horses. We ran Horse Trials, Dressage shows, Hunter/Jumper shows, and hosted clinics with people like Jimmy Wofford, Lucinda Green, Denny Emerson, Steven Bradley, and many others. We also hosted the Brazilian team for their training prior to the 96' Olympics. We no longer do shows. We now have our focus in a new direction, Enoch Ministries. We have bred and raised some amazing horses here at Big Bear Farm. |
