GrowingKids.org serves as the Internet home for the worldwide community of families brought together through the teaching ministry of Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo. This site does not replace GFI.org but complements it. (Read more about GFI.org below) Here is a place to expand your world of understanding, ask questions and make new friends. We established this website with three objectives in mind:
- To serve as a place of encouragement where parents can find other families of common persuasion dedicated to the principles of God-centered parenting and the various aspects of the Growing Families International (GFI) ministry. Parents can join a live chat room, ask questions and receive answers or just fellowship with parents who share your values and ideals for family living.
-
To provide the GFI community with additional parenting aids and resources otherwise not found in the GFI curriculum, as well as full access to all GFI teaching resources. You can also visit our library and forum where parenting resources are available at your finger tips.
- To provide the GFI community with public updates, announcements, commentary and responses to matters of public discourse concerning today’s parents and more specifically the GFI alumni.
GrowingKids.org is a great community of like-minded parents. Come and be a part of it.
About GFI.org:
GFI.org has been around in one form or another since the early 1990s when internet websites first began. Back then it was just a couple of HTML pages on an old server hidden in a back room. As technology grew, so did the complexity of our site. In time the store was added with email ordering capacities but no direct sales. Once web-based ordering technology became available in the late 1990s, we switched over to the Dallas based IOSC group, and now most recently, ION Resources who took over for IOSC. As the GFI ministry grew, GFI.org became more popular and general ministry inertia kept the site moving forward with updates and greater user opportunities.
In 2007, we split the content into two websites in order to better manage ministry needs. Today, GFI.org represents the business side of the organization, while Growingkids.org represents the ministry side. Although both sites are inter-related with some overlapping, only GFI.org has the store and product ordering capability while GrowingKids.org provides blogger notes and curriculumn support. Take a look around both sites.
