The last week of July had a lot going on! I’ll tell about it in two posts. Hopefully, I can add pictures to this in the near future; in the meantime, since it’s already a month late, here’s at least a quick summary.
First, the UMJC conference. The Association of Messianic Home Educators had a table at the vendor hall of the UMJC’s conference - an international gathering of one of the largest groups of Messianic Jewish congregational leaders. We were excited to have this opportunity to share information about home education and (more importantly) how home education fits with a multigenerational vision for family faithfulness.
A goodly number of people came by, looked at our materials, picked up literature, and engaged in conversation. On display were several items: Enjoying Your Children (my parents’ book); Celebrating the Feasts (lessons our family has learned, condensed from Enjoying Your Children); How Should a Godly Woman Dress? (by my mother); Safely Home (book), and Homeschool Vision of Victory (audio CD) (both of the latter are from our friends at the Vision Forum).
Thanks to Teresa and Sarah Sherry, who worked with us in running the table - setup, takedown, and all the interactions throughout the conference. They were a great blessing (as usual)!
