Mrs. Christine Soto:  Homeschool Conference Speaker and Workshop Leader Details

Our Journey with Joseph (with husband, Fernando Soto)
Come meet Fernando and Christine, and hear the story of their life’s journey with their son Joseph, now 23 years old. Hear their story, from the initial inklings of ‘something’s not right’ to tackling academics, to the teen years and into adulthood. Fernando will share encouragement and advice from a father’s heart toward his son, and Christine will share her perspective as a mother and principal homeschooler to Joseph.
