Welcome!
We are a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization sharing God’s love through literacy ministry across Texas.
Training Faith-Based ESL Teachers
Helping churches by preparing volunteers to teach English as a Second Language (ESL) classes in a church-based setting.
Giving Kids Access to Books
Helping churches by providing access to books for children participating in summer meals programs.
Preparing Refugees for School
Helping churches by establishing Ready for School! programs, a 20-week curriculum where volunteers help refugee children prepare for school.
Teaching Adults to Read & write
Through LEARN for Life, volunteers from churches can help adults build reading skills necessary to progress in education and employment.
From the Panhandle to Palacios and from East Texas to El Paso, Texas churches have taken seriously the mandate to welcome the stranger. Volunteers have provided instruction in English for refugees in many settings, but ministry has not stopped at the end of class. Caring volunteers have helped refugee families find jobs, furnish apartments and provide for the educational needs of their children. Let’s get ready!
