Homeschool Unit Celebration


Saturday, we went to the Segalini's home for our unit celebration. This unit we studied the Renaissance and Reformation. The kids learned a lot and did their presentations.

We missed all who could not make it! We love you Medana!

Erika and Josh talked about John Knox. He was a Protestant minister from Scotland who spent many years in prison because he sought to reform the church. While in prison and near death from being treated cruel, John said to his fellow slave, "I know the Lord will deliver us. Don't forget that Satan made Joseph go into Egypt, but God meant it for good to rescue His people. Don't lose hope, brother. God is faithful. We will return to our homeland and God will give us the victory." Two years later, John Knox was let out of prison and went to England to help advance the gospel. Eventually, John Knox went back to Scotland. Along with other ministers, he created a church grounded in Scripture. He preached until his death.

With that said, that concludes our history. What a great note to end on!
