Who We Are
Holy Family Catholic Home Educators is a social network of Catholic homeschooling families in the Cincinnati Tri-State Area. Our interactions take place through a groups.io message forum (online/email network) and through events (social, faith-based, and academic-based).
We exist primarily to support each other in the vocation of educating our children in the home. We offer valuable activities and events that children otherwise miss out on because they are not in a brick & mortar school. Our email group connects families to local co-ops, homeschooling resources and community, and provides a discussion forum of content related to homeschooling, our Catholic faith, and things that are tied to learning and building community.
Holy Family Catholic Home Educators hosts several events throughout the year including family events, high school events, dances, moms’ retreat and high school graduation. (See below for the specific events we have hosted in the past.)
We welcome practicing Catholic, currently homeschooling families in the Cincinnati Tri-state area, including Southeast Indiana and Northern Kentucky.

Mission Statement
Holy Family Catholic Home Educators is an association of lay faithful established to promote home education among Catholic families and to support those families who are engaged in providing their children’s primary education at home. “Since parents have conferred life on their children they have a most solemn obligation to educate their offspring. Hence, parents must be acknowledged as the first and foremost educators of their children. Their role as educators is so decisive that scarcely anything can compensate for their failure in it” (Gravissimum Educationis #23).
Holy Family Catholic Home Educators has as its foundation and as the guiding principle of all its functions and activities, fidelity to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, particularly to the Pope, who, as the successor of St. Peter, is the universal teacher in matters of faith and morals, and to the diocesan bishop teaching in communion with him.

The Holy Family Prayer
JESUS, Son of God and Son of Mary, bless our family. Graciously inspire in us the unity, peace, and mutual love that you found in your own family in the little town of Nazareth.
MARY, Mother of Jesus and Our Mother, nourish our family with your faith and your love. Keep us close to your Son, Jesus, in all our sorrows and joys.
JOSEPH, Foster-father to Jesus, guardian and spouse of Mary, keep our family safe from harm. Help us in all times of discouragement or anxiety.
HOLY FAMILY OF NAZARETH, make our family one with you. Help us to be instruments of peace. Grant that love, strengthened by grace, may prove mightier than all the weaknesses and trials through which our families sometimes pass. May we always have God at the center of our hearts and homes until we are all one family, happy and at peace in our true home with you. Amen.
