Hello!
We want to introduce ourselves. We are a group of Roman Catholic
homeschooling moms trying to serve God, our families, and other
homeschoolers in Fort Wayne, IN and surrounding areas. Our primary
activity is 9am Mass at Our Lady of Good Hope Parish 7215 Saint Joe Rd
Fort Wayne, IN on the First Friday
of each month in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. We usually
have an activity after mass at no cost.
Attendance at activities is open to all
persons, single or married, regardless of religious affiliation, whether
homeschooling or non-homeschooling.

Please contact Grace
for information about joining our group. You can e-mail her by

Annual Event - Our Annual Curriculum
Share occurs early in the year and you're invited! We get together
with some of our favorite books and share what has and hasn't worked in
our homeschools that year. Moms and Dads are both invited!
It's a good way to see something of our group and get a peek at
homeschooling, if you're looking for one. Many of us find it rejuvenating
and are encouraged by each other.

on getting your Catholic homeschool started.
Community
Information - These are
things in our local community that may be of interest to a homeschool
family. There is contact information as well as general information about
places & events you may be interested in.
Diocese Statues
- Our Bishop, John M. D'Arcy, promulgated statues and a pastoral letter to be
effective as particular law for the Diocese of Fort Wayne - South Bend on Sept.
15, 2006. In the Guidelines, Bishop D'Arcy reffers to the United
States Council of Catholic Bishop's Approved Book list. This is
the link to it : USCCB
Approved List
Canon Law - This is a PDF file of the Thesis of
Father Mark Guertner, Pastor of Our Lady of Good Hope Parish. His subject
matter was Homeschooling and Canon Law. It's 65 pages (so a little
cumbersome to print out), but a good read for those that want to know what the
Catholic Church's position is on homeschooling.
Advice - Just what it says ; free &
unsolicited.
Indiana Laws - Is
homeschooling legal?
