Welcome to the blog of Lighthouse Christian Homeschool!

This blog serves three purposes:

1. To have a place to 'jot down' the day to day happenings in our homeschool for our support teacher to see, in hopes that some of the things we do will fit nicely into the provincial learning outcomes.

2. To keep my family up to date on what we're 'up to'.

3. To glorify God.



So on that note, come on in!

Missionsfest

At the end of January we were able to head down to Canada Place and take part in the Missionsfest School Program. While the three older kids participated in the program for the morning, I took Caleb along with my friend Suzanne and her son Tanner for a little excursion/adventure to Gastown and then on the Seabus to Lonsdale Quay. When we got back and had lunch, we joined the others for the afternoon portion of the program. We listened to a talk and to the Watoto Children's Choir. What a treat! Once the program was over we roamed the exhibition hall and stopped at several booths to chat with the people there and learn about different missionary organizations.
This was a first for our kids to be at a big event and be 'dropped off ' with a group in the midst of several hundred other kids, but they all said they had a good time. Christine and Rebecca took great notes which really helped those of us who weren't at the morning portion to understand what they learned about. On the way home Joshua's comment was "I am so tired..but I'm sure glad I came"
