Convention Information

 

Teens & Young Adults

God has a purpose for every season of life. Now is the time to shape a dynamic vision and develop world impacting fruitfulness.

Teens ages 13-17 -  We are thrilled to see your teens attend the convention with you! Their hearts are stirred and their vision solidified when they gather with hundreds of home school families for mutual encouragement in walking the narrow way. We applaud your efforts to awaken within them a passion to forge ahead toward Christian maturity and avoid the broad way of prolonged irresponsibility. Our prayer is that through their attendance with you, the next generation will be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.

Since most of the convention is targeted toward husbands, wives, and teaching parents, we have planned several workshops specifically for our young people. As always, parents are encouraged to attend with their teen and together enjoy the benefits of learning and discussing ideas presented.

Note -  Teens may not attend the convention unless their parents are also on-site and we recommend that parents attend sessions with their teens. However, ICHE respects parents' authority to decide whether or not they should accompany their teens to the workshops. We trust parents to determine if their teens will demonstrate appropriate maturity. Thank you for your cooperation!

 

Young Adults 18 and up -  These workshops are suitable for you as well! As you continue to follow the Lord's ways, you will find much to equip you in these presentations and in many of the other sessions of the convention. We want to encourage you in your journey!
