Introduction/Welcome Message:

We welcome you to join us and bring your questions and concerns about educating your children at home. We have families from many different religious affiliations who use a widely variating selection of curriculum. We range from the text book approach to unschooling. Our meetings are opened with prayer and a short devotion as our Dear Lord leads. We hand out copies of the current newsletter containing a monthly supplement from "Provender... Food for Your Soul". There is plenty of time for discussion and fellowship after all the business is over. Won't you join us?
