The links we have been sharing come from "Homeschool Your Child For Free" published in 2000 but if you visit her website you have the opportunity to try and win her newest version with updated links coming out soon. Here is another installment from Jew for Jesus but she does have a disclaimer though: "I would also like to make a disclaimer. There will be another edition ofthis book comming out soon. I will share the links that work from the 2000edition and several other books that came out in the 90's. I will not sharethe links from the new book. That is not fair to the author.

I contacted a yahoo group I belong too and have had wonderful responses from some very lovely ladies who shared great info with me. One lady in particular has gone above and beyond the call of duty and has shared with me tons of websites and is planning on sharing tons more. She has found these links in the book "Homeschool Your Child For Free" and said she is checking out the links before sending them to make sure they are still active but said just in case there are any that YOU find that aren't active PLEASE leave me a comment and I will remove them. I would like to share them with you and a link to her site as she has more resources on it as well ( The Jew 4 Jesus Mission Portaportal Site ) Here are the links. I have not had t
