About Grasp Homeschool Co-op
Our Name
The name Grasp was taken from Ephesians 3:17a-19 (NIV). Our vision is that our children, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge- that they may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
About Our Families
Our families come from diverse backgrounds, denominations, and homeschool styles. However, as a Christian homeschool co-op, we base our guidelines on precepts from the Bible, all classes are taught from a Christian worldview, and each class day begins with prayer.
Statement of Faith
God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one God. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days and ascended to heaven as King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and he will return again to take us to heaven with Him. Salvation is found in no one else.
