Matt and Jacque Dixon, with their daughters, Miss Amanda, 19, and Miss Jocelyn, 17, created Gleaning the Harvest after seeing the need of support for widows and fatherless families in the home school community. Though Gleaning the Harvest is a ministry founded by Matt & Jacque Dixon, it is designed as a ministry of the Body of Christ. Through Gleaning the Harvest, you are given the opportunity to fulfill what James calls “pure religion”.
James 1:27
“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”
It is the belief at Gleaning the Harvest that it is the responsibility of the Body of Christ as much as they are able to help moms remain in the home being a Keeper at Home and home school mom. In searching Scripture, it is found that God’s people are to take up for the fatherless, the widow, and the stranger. As a family whose wife and mom is staying home teaching their children, following what they believe to be the LORD’s plan for women, the Dixons asked themselves why it should be different for a single mom and what they could do to lessen the burden.
To fulfill the blessing of Deuteronomy 24 to allow the strangers, widows and fatherless to glean in the fields after the harvest is the first part of their mission. Though this is not a real field or vineyard to glean in, at the Gleaning the Harvest site, you can open up your virtual harvest and offer gleanings to families in need through direct payment to the families.
The second part of the mission is to aid families in fulfilling Deuteronomy 6 within their families through home schooling. Being a homeschool family themselves, they understand the desire to keep children home to teach, lead and love in the nurture and admonition of the LORD, as we walk with them and talk with them.
