For Homeschooling
Fall Family Conference
Discipleship Through Homeschooling
September 26th & 27th, 2025
Hillcrest Evangelical Free Church
2433 Progressive Road
Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, newlywed, single, teen, or child, all are welcome to participate in these sessions. Our goal is to provide meaningful insights and practical tools for everyone involved in homeschooling, fostering a strong sense of community and shared mission.
Even if you’re not currently homeschooling but are curious about what it entails, this conference is a great opportunity to explore. You'll hear firsthand experiences, gain valuable knowledge, and connect with seasoned homeschool families. Whether you're considering homeschooling in the future or simply want to learn more, attending will give you a well-rounded understanding of the journey, equipping you to make informed decisions.
We’re excited to announce our first-ever Conference Family Fun Night, a special evening designed to help you unwind, connect, and enjoy some lighthearted fun after a full day of sessions!
Join us Friday for a relaxed, joy-filled gathering where families can share a meal, play games, laugh together, and build new friendships. It’s the perfect opportunity to recharge, be encouraged, and spend meaningful time with others who are walking the homeschooling journey right alongside you.
Bring your own picnic-style meal, or skip the prep and let us take care of dinner! We’ll be serving up hot dogs, chips, a side, and a frozen ice treat.
Purchase your meal tickets during registration—it’s easy, delicious, and fun!
Let’s keep the day rolling with good food, great company, and plenty of smiles. We can’t wait to see you there!
Everyone is welcome—whether you're a seasoned homeschooler, just getting started, or simply exploring the idea. We offer sessions for parents, teens, children, grandparents and even those not currently homeschooling.
If your children are attending the Kids Track, they will head to their designated classrooms after registration for a fun-filled day of skits, activities, and songs. You're welcome to check in on them at any time, otherwise, you'll reunite at the end of the day.
In the Family Discipleship Track, you will attend insightful sessions on homeschooling, parenting, and family life. Some sessions feature two speaker tracks, giving you options to tailor your experience. We've arranged tables for comfortable note-taking, offering a relaxed space to connect with others between sessions. Plus, enjoy an incredible complimentary snack table with unlimited coffee and drinks!

Children will eat in their classroom both days and should bring sack lunches and snacks that don’t require refrigeration. We kindly ask that you avoid sending colored drinks. If you'd prefer to have lunch with your child, you're more than welcome to take them with you during the lunch break.
Attendees of the Family Discipleship Track should dress comfortably for indoor teaching sessions, where seating is provided at tables.
Children in the Kids Track should wear comfortable clothing suitable for sitting on the floor, playing games, and potentially spending time outdoors.
Teens have the opportunity to participate in the Leaders in Training program, serve as Student Leaders, join the drama team or attend the Family Discipleship Tract.

Wonderful experience for my children! Amazing effort and talent is put into this conference and I'm so thankful for those who work so hard at creating an awesome learning environment for the children.
The only complaint from my kids was that it was too short! The ultimate compliment! Awesome job, everyone.
Such an awesome team who put so much time into preparing wonderful lessons and dramas for the kids to learn from and enjoy! We are so thankful for the kids conference!
