Another Successful Homeschool Camp
We are home from another wonderful homeschool camp, a week filled with fun, catechetics and daily Mass.
Catching up with old friends and making new ones. We were blessed with many new families at camp this year which was fantastic.
Father Terence-Mary was once again our camp chaplain, we are always so thrilled to enjoy his company each year.
We were also blessed to have Father Nicholas, a newly ordained priest (last year) from our diocese, visit and spend time talking with our teens about prayer.
Tuesday we were joined by our Bishop once again for Confirmation and First Holy Communion.

A very special quartet of friends, all members of the 4Real community were blessed to meet up at camp. We had lots to talk about:)

Currently Linda, Bill and family are staying with us, tomorrow they begin their long 25hour trek back to South Australia.

So glad it went well. The catholic homeschool community in Australia are very blessed and I'm a little green with envy, aahh did I say that, that you have been able to spend time yogether at a camp!! I am friends with a few of your comrades in the photo's and was very happy to see them with you, as I'm sure you all blessed & encouraged each other. Blessings, Renelle

How great to cement your online friendships with real life. Did you call people by their online names or their real names?
