We are now known as the - Christian H.O.M.E. Group - and we will still refer to ourselves by the shortened version of "E-Group". The acronym of H.O.M.E. in our new name stands for: Homeschoolers Offering Meaningful Encouragement & Educational Enrichment. Our mission comes from 1Peter 4:10 - We are a fellowship of Christian Homeschoolers striving to faithfully administer God's Grace by using our God given gifts to serve, love, and encourage one another in the homeschooling journey!

Our group meetings consist of structured classes to enhance home education, taught as much as possible through a Christian worldview. Classes are self-contained for nursery through kindergarten. Classes for our older children are divided into three groups: Group A consists of our 1st-3rd graders, Group B consists of our 4th-6th graders, and Group C consists of our 7th-12th grade students. Classes for our children vary from year to year and could include art, hands-on science, history, fun w/ foods, P.E., reading fun, sewing, or literature, drama, and life skills for our older children. Classes are offered and taught based on the strengths and gifts of our adult members. Our group is designed so that each family must have a parent present to help provide instruction, supervision, and to safeguard a child in the event of an emergency.

We meet twice monthly on Mondays from September to November, with a December Christmas Talent Share program - and from February to April with a May Spring Talent Share program. Our meeting facility is East White Oak Bible Church, just a short drive North West of Normal. We enjoy use of spacious classrooms, the church gymnasium for our P.E. classes, a beautiful kitchen for our foods classes, and comfortable nursery accommodations.
