NOTE: This group is ONLY for members of GRACEducators in Abingdon, Virginia. Your membership must be approved by the moderator. If you are new to our group, you must first read and agree by signing a faith statement established by GRACE. For more information or to receive a copy of the faith statement please contact Teresa Rasnake at tkrasnake@gmail.com. This group is composed of some long-time homeschoolers as well as newer ones, and also a few with young children who are "getting ready". We are a Christian group of families that seek to encourage and support one another in the calling to homeschool our children in a Christ-centered environment.

We have various activities and organized field trips from time to time. Our meeting format includes a brief devotional, any business matters and then a time of open discussion where anyone can ask questions, share a problem and seek advice, etc.

We generally have our monthly meetings at homes or churches of our group members on a volunteer basis; the location changes depending upon who has volunteered to host that month's meeting.

This email loops functions as a caveat for all announcements, reminders, field trip information and other types of information regarding our group. A one-time business advertising email is permitted. Also allowable are items for sale or desired for purchase -- as long as they are not excessive.

Welcome to our little group on the web! We hope you join us!
