Folks,

Many of you are HSLDA members and have received their eblast and already signed the petition to advocate our government not deport them back to Germany–thank you!  You can type “Romeike homeschooling” into your favorite search engine and learn more if you are not aware of this immigration asylum case.

HSLDA has made it easy to explain how to sign the petition at whitehouse.gov by clicking here.  They were almost at 100,000 just a few minutes ago.  Let your government know your thoughts in this very easy way.  You only have to be 13 with an active email address (you do not even have to be a US citizen) to sign the petition–so get your older children in on the action!

Hope to see you this Friday in Denver for Day at the Capitol–this case is an example of why we need to be involved to petition our God for the preservation of liberty through the civil magistrate–ministers He has appointed for our good (Rom 13).  Pray for them!

We’ve moved! Just next door — 6 Nov 2012

Hello friends,

With help from PCHE (the Parker Homeschool Support Group) and our sub-lease church, Lifeline Christian Fellowship, we moved offices right next door last week.  We now lease the larger building where we used to hold our seminars (the old Grace Baptist Church location).  Our new address is 10461 S. Parker Rd. Parker CO 80134 and we are open for business.  We were able to keep the bookstore open, so come on down any day!  We were going to be without a place to do seminars, now we have a nice, big room to do those seminars and potentially much, much more.  Our expenses did increase, so please consider us in your donations as we strive to serve you better.  Thank you.
