Christian Association of Pennsylvania Home school Conference

This past weekend we(Sam and I) went to the home school conference in this area. Last year I will say it was a different atmosphere, and a different spirit. Last year I remember walking in and thinking wow- where is everyone?- Compared to the Texas Home school Coalition conference, this conference looked empty and small. I walked around feeling lonely, unsure of what to expect. I noticed a lot of the sessions were very basic, not inspirational or spiritually based at all. I truly did get what I expected. I walked out last year saying" I will never going back" but back I went to this years conference with different hope and expectations.(hey maybe that was the key)
I went with different hopes and expectations because the sessions seemed right up my alley with speakers like Voddie Bauchman(whom we knew well since we went to his church in Houston) and Crystal Paine. Each having a wealth of knowledge to share with all of us.


Here are some highlights of my homeschooling conference experience:
1. The challenges I received spiritually
2. The NEW enlightenment I received. Satan loves when God's people are totally and absolutely ignorant.
3. THE PEOPLE I met were incredible. One amazing woman comes to mind Mary Anne Eagleson- one of the chair over CHAP. We met each other and it was like talking to an old friend. Her wealth of knowledge,contagious smile, and wonderful heart just drew me in! I loved talking to her! My beloved said "that is you my love in 20 years.". we are to peas in a pod.
4. The reuniting of fellowship with brothers and sisters from Philadelphia  We have had a family from Philadelphia that come and stay with us. It is always a highlight of our year(it has been two years now)
5. I got to hang out   for two days with one of my own sisters in Christ from my local church who is just beginning her journey in home schooling this next fall. (I am excited for her) 


































This precious angel will never know the evil that the public schools brings to the hearts and souls of our children. HURRAY for THE KINGDOM.. HURRAY FOR OUR LORD AND SAVIOR!!!





Love In Christ Angie

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
