Welcome to CHECH

Our Mission

To create a Catholic Homeschool community in Houston connecting smaller groups to one another and assisting families with resources concerning Catholic education.

Our Lady of the Pillar

In 40 A.D. Our Lady appeared to St. James on a pillar encouraging him to spread the Gospel. Inspired by this event, CHECH’s logo features a letter M in a column, in honor of our Blessed Mother.

May she intercede for us in our task of educating and spreading the Gospel in our homes and communities.

Holy Virgin of the Pillar: increase our faith, strengthen our hope, revive our charity. Help those who suffer misfortune, those who suffer from loneliness, ignorance or hunger or lack of work. Strengthen the weak in faith. Arouse in the young an availability for a total surrender to God.

Amen.

-St. John Paul II-

  • Secretary, 2023

    After some good conversations and experiencing firsthand the rich life of a beautiful homeschooling family, Jessica and Barrett came to the realization that this was a life they, too, wanted: unified, simplified, intentional. And so they embarked on the journey of home education. Jessica has always loved to read and believes that good books and good conversation change the world. She enjoys being home with her seven children in Galveston and is grateful every day for the gift of her husband who encourages her to be present to the people in her home and aware of the created world outside that beckons.
