We would like to welcome guest speaker Ray Howell, to River Oak Church!
Ray Howell’s youthful years were filled with boyhood dreams of hunting and fishing. Due to being fatherless and having to work daily on his foster parents farm, Ray never thought these dreams could become reality. Being without a father, he didn’t have a role model to teach him about hunting and fishing. However, Ray’s social worker, Tom Poukey, decided to take him under his wing. Tom took Ray on his very first white-tail deer hunt during his high school years and convinced Ray that regardless of his current circumstances, he could pursue all his dreams when released from foster care at the age of 18. Ray eventually harvested his first buck when he was 20 years old. He was hooked!
Invite your friends to come hear Ray’s incredible story and how he went on to achieve many accomplishments including:
– Outdoor Life magazine most influential Sportsman of the Year
– Harvested many Pope & Young Whitetails
– Recipient of the Pope & Young Club Stewardship Award in 2007
– Competed in drug free powerlifting competitions where he won National and World championships
