I am so unbelievably excited. You may remember that last year I was blessed to attend the Teach Them Diligently homeschool conference in Spartanburg. Well this year, God has completely provided a way for me to attend in Nashville!
I wasn’t planning to attend, we have sort of decided to not spend money on ANY trips until we have saved enough for all 5 of us to go to Guatemala to visit my brother. Well, as you know, that is going to take awhile to save…we aren’t even close. But, when God provided (within 30 minutes of each other) a room from one person, a ride from another person and a registration fee from somewhere else, I began thinking that He wanted me to be there!!
This is one of the speakers I am most excited about…drumroll…
I shared last year that one of my favorite speakers was Ann Dunagan who shared about having a Mission Minded Homeschool. I went to all of her sessions and was SO blessed, I went on to purchase all her books and continued to be blessed. I wrote about her practical ideas for having a mission minded homeschool here. I also shared about her session about the 3 dynamics of a mission minded family. If you want to read her book, you will glean all of these ideas and more…it will be like your very own private convention session. 🙂 If you can’t attend, that is!
I also shared here {very briefly} about a few other speakers I enjoyed!!
Maybe you are just THINKING and PRAYING about homeschooling. Maybe you are going to have a high schooler this year. Or, maybe you’re like me and need all the encouragement & help you can get in this homeschooling journey. Well, if any of those are you, try to get to one of these conferences.
Honestly, when I went last year, I came home and told myself I would try to go to something like this once or twice a year. We don’t have the extra money in our budget for lots of traveling. But, it needs to be a priority. I need to make every effort to find support and encouragement on this journey. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done (mothering and homeschooling) and walking it alone is just not an option!!
