     The leadership of SCCCHE is happy to announce and welcome on September 25th, Steve Demme. Steve will uplift us with talks about ‘The Family that stays together stays together’. 

      Mr. Demme has a heart to encourage and equip fathers to follow the scriptural model of leading their family, so plan to bring your whole family to experience a day filled with encouragement, fellowship and maybe even a little fun. Don’t forget your young men, as they will soon be leading families of their own.

      In this encouraging workshop, Steve relates the positive experiences that he and his wife have experienced raising their four sons. With plenty of humorous illustrations, Steve shares tried and proven suggestions that have enhanced their family life. With God’s help he is convinced there is hope for the family in the 21st century.

      Steve Demme and his wife Sandra have been married for 30 years. They have been blessed with four boys: Isaac, 30; Ethan, 28; Joseph, 25; and Johnny, 22. With God’s help, they have all been home educated. He is the founder of MathUSee and is on the board of Joni and Friends for Eastern PA.

      Steve’s desire is to strengthen, teach, encourage, validate, and exhort parents and families to follow the biblical model for the Christian home. Having spent years working with youth as a teacher in schools (public and Christian); as a pastor and youth leader in churches; and as a counselor and camp director at summer camps, he is absolutely convinced that the
single most significant influence in a child’s life is that of his parents. Mentors and coaches have a valuable and influential role in the life of today’s youth, but you can’t replace Mom and Dad. Outside ministries are helpful but godly parents are essential. You may support the home, but
you can’t replace it. http://thefamilythatstaystogether.org/

      Tentatively, we are hoping to begin the day at 10:00 a.m., have pulled pork lunches made by our very own Boys Scouts available, and then offer a full afternoon of uplifting conversations followed by Father/son, Father/daughter Ultimate Frisbee tournaments to wrap up our afternoon. Please watch for updates and plan to come for any, or preferably all of the day.
