This is a church small group at Encounter (church at the corner of Ralston and Johnson in Ventura) for homeschool parents hosted by ACHEV moms Andie Savard and Susan Pineda. It is open to ACHEV, the church, and the community.

Time may vary. Some events may begin at 6 or 6:30, or even 7. Watch for special notices about each event for details of each meeting. Thank you.

Before the pandemic/public health order, we would open our home to ACHEV parents about one evening a month for support meetings on a variety of topics throughout the year. While we adapted by offering shorter weekly support with Tips at Two on Zoom for a season, we sure miss/missed being able to meet in person.

When churches began to be permitted to host small groups, I decided to lead a small group at Encounter, a homeschool support group!  These additional monthly meetings will be for deeper discussions and fellowship support in person. I am open to ideas, topics, speaker suggestions, etc.

This will be held 2nd Tuesday evenings monthly at Encounter, located at 6950 Ralston Avenue (corner of Johnson and Ralston) in Ventura. RSVP for where we will meet on campus, as that can change.
