Brittany Berry
Founder & President
Brittany has always had a huge heart for people and a mindset of gratitude for the way the Lord has showed just how faithful He is through her trials. Faithful Still is her way of paying forward all of the ways she has experienced faithfulness from the Lord and hopes to be able to help others through their own trauma related experiences. Her prayer is that you can lean closer into the Lord even while wrestling through the hard. Alongside this she is first and foremost a wife to Derek Berry and Mama to 5 babies!

Crystal Weaver
equine therapist
Crystal has a heart for children and serving others. Her parents fostered children most of her childhood, and she has now been a licensed foster mother for several years. Growing up with foster siblings in and out of her home taught her how to have grace and a love for children and families in crisis. She has also worked professionally with children and adults with trauma and special needs, and currently works as a care coordinator for at risk youth. She got her first horse at 13. She learned how healing being in the presence of a horse can be, and how a relationship with a horse can mimic our relationship with God and bring us closer to Him. She became a PATH certified therapeutic riding instructor in 2014 and later became certified as an equine specialist in mental health and learning.

Larry Gabric
volunteer farm manager
Larry J. Gabric, owner of Eternal Springs Farm, Green Ohio. Larry grew up on the family dairy farm in Green, Ohio that many decades later has now become a horse farm! Larry and his wife Teri have raised alpacas, shetland sheep and bison as well as running a horse boarding business here on the farm.
Larry learned early on in his life what it meant to work hard from his Dad who ran the dairy farm! Larry went away to college to pursue a professional career, but farming was always part of his life. Larry was bi-vocational through much of his professional careers as a meteorologist, pastor and Math teacher along with farming. He and his wife Teri founded Hiddenacres Farm on the back 40 acres of his Dad’s farm in the 1990s where they established a U-Pick berry farm and raised alpacas and bison.
A job transfer took them to northern Maine where the couple established Northwoods Farm where they raised alpacas and processed fiber. Another job transfer took them to South Carolina where they continued Northwoods Farm and Larry entered the ministry.
After Larry retired from the National Weather Service, they moved to Florida where Larry pastored Advent Church and taught school. The Lord then led Larry back to Ohio several years ago to purchase the family farm. Larry and Teri are now the owners of Eternal Springs Farm where they board horses, bale hay and garden.
Larry and Teri are excited that the Lord has led them to transitioning the farm into Equine Therapy through Faithful Still!
