Mission Statement

ARCH-Angels is a community that promotes Catholic family life for families who choose to educate their children at home.  We are committed to helping families grow in holiness, so that they can be witnesses of love and life in their families, parishes and the world.  We believe that homeschooling is a channel through which God’s grace is helping to form holy families.

 The foundation and guiding principle of all ARCH-Angels functions and activities is its fidelity to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, in communion with the Holy Father and our bishop.  ARCH-Angels consecrates all its activities to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary in union with St. Joseph. 

 It is our firm belief that homeschooling is a vibrant, positive and challenging way of life.  Homeschooling allows mothers and fathers the opportunity to instill the Truths of our Catholic faith as the base of knowledge from which all other learning flows.

 ARCH-Angels membership is open to families of all faiths interested in homeschooling, with the understanding that we are faithful to the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church.

  

Consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the Immaculate Hearts of Mary

Our Goals

 1. To seek a deeper learning and living out of the Catholic faith by:

+ Promoting the Catechism of the Catholic Church as the ultimate resource for authentic Catholic teachings.

+ Promoting the Sacred Tradition of the Catholic Church (i.e. Papacy, Scripture, Blessed Mother, saints, sacraments, salvation by faith and works).

+ Cultivating a true devotion to Mary and the saints.

+ Promoting family prayer (i.e. rosary, novenas, church devotions, Scripture study).

+ Encouraging frequent attendance at Mass, reconciliation and perpetual adoration.

+ Providing spiritually-oriented group activities (i.e. group Mass, retreats, rosaries).

 2. To establish an intimate community of families whose goal is:

+ To develop a passionate love for Christ.

+ To be consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary in union with St. Joseph.

+ Loyalty to the Pope and the Magisterium of the Church.

+ To be come leaven within the community.

 3. Provide personal support and encouragement by:

+ Establishing a network of parents dedicated to encourage each other and build each other up in the face of a complex and difficult task.

+ Providing a relaxed, trusting environment where members can share challenges as well as successes.

+ Assisting one another through practical suggestions and ideas on how to lighten the load in our daily struggles (i.e. setting goals, planning, organizational hints, avoiding burnout, and discipline).

+ Provide communication through newsletters, meetings and e-mail.

 

4. To promote Catholic homeschooling resources:

+ There is an abundance of non-Catholic materials, curricula and resources for Homeschooling and materials that are contrary to Catholic teaching.  In order to make our Homeschooling truly Catholic ARCH-Angels will aid families in selecting Catholic materials and resources.
