What Others Are Saying

“OCEANetwork provides a plethora of amazing services. I am so thankful for the countless hours they volunteer to protect and fight for our homeschool freedom and to equip us to serve the Lord as we train up our children – especially the yearly conference. Christian homeschoolers in Oregon would be lost without OCEANetwork!” – Angela

“It’s more than a homeschool support network, it’s a family of believers coming together to give encouragement and positive feedback, as well as come alongside each other in problem solving and fnding resolutions using a combination of the law and wisdom from God’s Word. In a nutshell, this OCEANetwork family is a blessing in so many ways to my family and many others!!” – Tami

“My husband and I look forward to the OCEANetwork conference every year! It has been an amazing way to connect with like-minded Christian homeschool parents, listen to speakers who share godly wisdom, and strengthen our marriage while being encouraged for the journey! We have been so blessed by OCEANetwork!” – Clarissa
