ESL Ministry East Regional Conference

One of the greatest challenges of being a stranger in a foreign land is overcoming the language barrier that exists to new residents. Developing successful communication skills are vital in the process of making healthy and smooth transitions from one’s home country to a new country. This is where our Florida Baptist churches have been given an incredible privilege and responsibility of helping our new international neighbors with these transitional challenges. English Language Missions seeks to demonstrate and share God’s love with individuals who are learning or struggling with language issues.

This ESL (English as a Second Language) teaching conference offers 2 tracks: Basic ESL Workshop and Advanced ESL Regional Training.
Friday, July 31, 12:00pm-6:00pm (Basic ESL Workshop Only)
