Selah Homeschool Resource Center

08/27/2026

Homeschooling is a calling, but you were never meant to walk it alone.

Selah Homeschool Resource Center is a Christian homeschool support group. Our mission is to come alongside, encourage, and collaborate with families in fulfilling their Christ-centered, parent-directed calling to educate their children.

At Selah you will find genuine community — families who pray for one another, learn together, and share the journey. From weekly park days and enriching field trips, to encouraging Mom's Nights, mentoring and seminars, our extensive lending library, and collaborative co-ops, everything we do here is to support your home.

Key Verse:
"And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." — Philippians 1:6

We would love to welcome you.

A Prayer for Our Families:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the privilege of teaching our children and guiding them in Your truth. Bless every family who feels this call on their heart — give them strength for each day, wisdom for each lesson, and peace in knowing You are completing the good work You began. May Selah be a place of rest, encouragement, and Christ-centered community for all who come. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Do you know about CHEA of California?

The annual CHEA Parenting and Homeschool Conference happened last weekend! There are other conventions out there, but none reach the Heart and Soul of our homeschooling mission in the same way. Highly recommend.

Plan now for next year 🥰
