Metroplex Literacy Conference 2027

Metroplex Literacy Conference 2027 Jesus is our Anchor of Hope in Changing Times Hebrews 6:18-20 The Metroplex Literacy Conference is a yearly gathering of faith and community-based ESL and adult literacy programs throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. It began in 2014 as partnership of LAMP (Literacy and Missions Partnership), an association of Christian ESL ministries. It’s original purpose was to provide an extension to the TELL training provided to church-based programs through the North American Mission Board. Since it’s inception, it has expanded to include many literacy organizations across the DFW area. The Metroplex Literacy Conference is held each year at Dallas Baptist University, in Pilgrim Chapel, on the first Saturday of March. It features workshops for instruction in the areas of ESL, Citizenship, HSE/ESL, and ministry to internationals. These sessions are taught by experts in their fields.
