Summer Summit


You are invited to attend the Summer Summit on August 3, 2019 at Midway Baptist Church, 4512 Ellis Drive, Kountze, TX 77625. The four sessions of the Summer Summit are faith, friendships, food, and fun. These four f's are the ingredients for a happy homeschool mom.

09:00 Check-In & Summit Shoppe
10:00 FAITH
11:30 FRIENDSHIPS
12:00 FOOD & Summit Shoppe
01:00 FUN
02:00 Door Prizes & Summit Shoppe

FAITH - A short time of reviewing what God has to say about issues closest to a mother's heart can do wonders to fill up an exhausted mom. Two mini-sessions are planned just for you. Susan Reed will share "The Balance Between Homeschooling and Homemaking" and then Kayla Buckner will share "Plan, Prep, Prosper".

FRIENDSHIPS - Friendships strengthen us to be better wives and mothers. As any mom can attest, we tend to get so focused on others that we neglect ourselves; and that's not good for anyone. We need to be with other homeschool moms - for that occasional grown-up conversation. A time to encourage one another and learn from each other's challenges. During this session, your questions will set in motion the "gift of gab".

FOOD - There's something about a get-together with food that nourishes a mother's heart as well as her body. A luncheon will be served with chicken salad on crossaint, potato soup, cookie, and iced tea.

FUN - Fun is the final, and in my opinion the most important session. Proverbs 17:22 says, "a merry heart doeth good like medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." The Bible seems to suggest that laughter is a good antidote for the blues. Therefore, fun is a critical component for a successful Summer Summit.

SUMMIT SHOPPE - Do you have curriculum for sell? Do you have a home-based business? Display and sell as a vendor in our Summit Shoppe! Cost is only $20 for a table and booth space. 

Attendees can expect to find a room filled with deals on curriculum and resources. The publishers and companies listed below can be found in the Summit Shoppe. This list will expand as more vendors register.

  • BJU Press offering convention discounts again: 25% off all products, 50% off of 6 or more distance learning classes (with books), and of course, free shipping!
  • Chalk Couture
  • Tupperware
  • Apologia

DOOR PRIZES - Our door prize table is always a hit and huge blessing! If you would like to donate a door prize for FREE advertisement in the program, please contact Susan Reed at susanmreed22@gmail.com.

TAKE HOME TOTES - Each mom in attendance will receive a take-home-tote! If you would like to donate a promotional item or product for the totes, please contact Susan Reed at susanmreed22@gmail.com.

We would like to thank the many publishers and companies for donating a promotional item or product - BJU Press, IEW, Progeny Press, Memoria Press, My Father's World, Tabbies, Sub Zero, Glue Dots, Notgrass History, Christian Liberty Press, Practical Homeschooling, Teaching Textbooks, Beautiful Feet Books, and Lee Products Coampany! 

CHILDCARE - Childcare will be provided; but children must bring a sack lunch. Please tell us ages in the "comment" section during checkout, so we will be prepared with activities. Cost is only $5 for each family.

Registration includes summit shoppe, luncheon, participation in all sessions, door prizes, and a take-home-tote filled with materials and resources to help and encourage the homeschool mom.
