Are you having a hard day…are you weary from the roughness of the road? I wanted to remind you that it is a good thing to remember that this world is not our home and “It is better farther on.” Listen to this sweet old hymn.

Remind me Dear Lord
This sweet country song touches my heart every time I hear it.
Hip, Hip, Hurray-The Romeikes Can Stay!!!
I received this good news from HSLDA. Thank You Lord for answering our prayers!
The Department of Homeland Security verbally informed Home School Legal Defense Association that the Romeike family is being granted indefinite deferred action status. The Department told HSLDA that this meant the order of removal would not be acted on and that the Romeikes could stay.
HSLDA Chairman Michael Farris was thrilled.
“This is an incredible victory that I can only credit to Almighty God. I also want to thank those who spoke up on this issue—including that long ago White House petition. We believe that the public outcry made a huge impact. What an amazing turnaround—in just 24 hours,” he said.
Yesterday, the Supreme Court issued a denial of the Romeike family’s petition for certiorari, sparking an immediate and unprecedented reaction. Fox News told HSLDA that they recorded 1 million page views of the Romeikes’ story in 24 hours—an all-time high. Although many were not surprised by the Supreme Court’s decision, it seemed that this was the last hope for the family to avoid being sent back to Germany where they would undoubtedly be persecuted for homeschooling their children.
