Who we are

Fellowship for the homeschooling years

Parents are the first and principal teachers of their children, and no family was meant to do that work alone. TORCH is a fellowship of Catholic homeschooling families in San Antonio who pray together at First Friday Mass, keep the feasts of the Church, and gather in clubs and events where children find real friends and parents find real support.

Our story & mission

A Catholic church interior
What we hope to nurture

The true, the good, and the beautiful

Truth

We teach our children to love what is true, to wonder at creation, and to see the Faith and learning as one.

Goodness

Virtue is learned by practice. Through service, good habits, and the example of the saints, our children grow in character.

Beauty

The liturgy, the feasts of the Church, music, and good books lift the soul toward God. We keep them alive in our homes and gatherings.

“Grace does not destroy nature but perfects it.”

— St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae I, q. 1, a. 8, ad 2
