Imagine trying to raise your children according to the Bible without ever having been taught how or trying to successfully homeschool without ever having seen anyone do it. This is the actual experience of thousands of Christian families around the world. Often they are left without even one person who can serve as their mentor. Now through the Family Network we are answering this need by connecting families who have a sincere desire to learn from those that can mentor them.

Here is how it works: Families that have homeschooled for four or more years with a desire to experience family missions go through an application and interview process. Upon completion, they are connected with a new homeschooling family in another country that needs mentoring. The mentor family commits to praying for that family regularly and encouraging them by regular e-mails, letters, photos, or phone calls at least once a month. Each family is provided with a private message board that serves as a family website. Maintaining communication with your family is made simple, organized, and effective. Also, our ministry support staff provides firsthand knowledge of the family, country, and culture to make this a positive, growing experience for all.

The results of this simple, yet profound ministry are life-changing. Parents have the opportunity to involve their children in heart-to-heart ministry while forming meaningful and lasting relationships. Adopting a family is one of the most effective ways your family can reach out and disciple another homeschooling family right now.
