MPE conference and Curriculum Fair for Homeschoolers

The 2012 MPE Conference and Curriculum Fair will be on April 20 – 21, with the keynote address on Thursday, April 19 at 7.00 p.m. The conference will be held at the KCI Expo Center (http://www.kciexpo.com/) again, and the keynote address will be at Emmanuel Baptist Church (http://godfor.us/about-emmanuel-baptist-church/visiting-ebc/)



This year’s theme is “Telling the Coming Generation the Glorious Deeds of the Lord (Psa. 78:4)” and will feature Kevin Swanson (keynote) and Israel Wayne.

Homeschooled himself in the 1960’s and 70’s, Kevin Swanson and his wife, Brenda, are now homeschooling their five children. Kevin has 35 years of experience in the homeschooling movement and serves as Director of Generations with Vision (http://generationswithvision.com/) – a ministry he founded to strengthen homeschool families. As a father who wants to leave a godly heritage for his own five children, Kevin’s passion is to strengthen and encourage the homeschooling movement all over the world, and to cast a vision for generations to come.

Israel Wayne (http://www.israelwayne.com/) is a homeschooled graduate who is leading his generation in defending the Christian faith and developing a Biblical worldview. He is the author of the book Homeschooling from a Biblical Worldview and currently serves as Marketing Director at Wisdom’s Gate Ministries. Israel and his wife Brook were joined in marriage without dating. Israel and Brook, also a homeschool graduate, are home educating their seven young children.
