We’re so thankful for every person who attended our 2026 Women’s Encouragement Day! What a beautiful privilege to serve all you spectacular homeschool moms.

Theme of the day: ‘Chasing Christ Over Culture’
-
-
- From the Women’s Encouragement Team: “In preparation for this day, Deuteronomy 6:5-7 was laid on the hearts of our team. We see God’s hand weaving this day together as it was confirmed that this is the guiding passage in our speaker’s ministry to moms. In this passage, we read… “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.” Our speaker, Terri Hitt, is a local published author who relates first-hand to our experiences as homeschool moms. The overarching theme of our day Chasing Christ Over Culture has been born out of her journey through motherhood, and the wisdom that she has to share with us today. “
