About Holly Vaughan
Holly Vaughan comes to Homeschool Connections with an extensive background in parish catechetical work. She has experience in catechesis with all ages, particularly with middle school, high school, and adult faith formation. She has not only taught, but been involved in curriculum creation for all of these ages, and is especially interested in creating classes that teach in the format developed by the Early Church Fathers, which roots everything we learn in Scripture. After studying theology as an undergrad at the University of Dayton, she was accepted to the Master’s Program at Augustine Institute to study for her MA in Theology with a concentration in Sacred Scripture. She has a special love for helping high school and young adult students grow in their faith, and for the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, both of which provide many opportunities to see people come alive as the teaching of our Catholic faith comes alive for them in a new way. Holly lives in rural Southern Illinois with her wonderful husband, who is a farmer, and her two amazing teenage sons, who are both Homeschool Connections students.
