Sale, price increase, and a new launch

Published about 1 month ago • 1 min read

Happy Thursday Reader,

I have some pretty big updates for you, including details on a sale, a price increase, some news about our event, and a new launch! Let's jump right in, shall we?

1. The price increase
Yes, our prices are going up. I know there are going to be a lot of questions on this and so I put together a post with more details and context to explain where this is coming from. But just so that it doesn't cause any panic, we have decided that this won't take place until after our sale in July so that people have an opportunity to plan for it and also take advantage of our current prices for the sale. Check out the full explanation and details here.

2. The sale
Our sale dates are finally official: July 17-21, 2024 (five days). We will be offering 20% off everything in store, and we will have physical books available at our in-person event where you can save on shipping as well (perhaps making the trip more worth it).

3. The event
After prayerful consideration, we believe that our family ministry event for 2024 needs to be open to as many people as possible. With the cost of travel, hotels, and more, we recognize that paying for tickets may be out of reach for some and so we decided to approach things a different way and make it free. We will be doing an offering one night only at the event to help cover the costs, so if you want to support the event or what we are doing, you can plan for that instead. We only ask that you register soon if you are coming so that we can plan and e-mail us to cancel if there is a change of plans and you can't make it. You can register here.

4. Our newest unit
We are so excited that Unsolved Mysteries is LIVE! This is definitely one of my favorite designs and we had so much fun putting it together. Check out the full TOC on the site here and don't forget to download your free sample to get your feet wet and see what you think!

Don't miss our live worship and prayer night next Tuesday at 7pm EST (live on Instagram, Facebook, as well as our free app). We'll be gathering as a family to press in and worship in the midst of the storms that seem to be on all sides to remind ourselves that God is bigger than the chaos, He can use all things for good, and He isn't finished yet.

Good morning Reader, We are so close to finishing our first regional unit, Alberta. While this is a Canadian province, it applies to everyone and is a great study to help you meet your goals for geography and social studies. All throughout the unit, students are encouraged to compare the history, topography, industry, economy, politics, etc. to their own region—helping the topic to apply no matter where you live! The program is only ten lessons long, making it easy to fit in alongside or in...

Good morning Reader, We are so excited to release our first physics unit . . . and this one is all about Energy. As you might imagine, this is a sensitive topic and there is a lot of controversy—which we tackle head on in typical Gather 'Round style! Students will be learning about the art of persuasion and becoming more aware of tactics all around them before putting it into practice—trying to persuade their family of their point of view.
