It can feel intimidating
being in a new country.
We want to help smooth your transition to life in the United States. We offer social nights in American homes that are planned with the whole family in mind. You can get to know other internationals and make new American friends. If needed, we can connect you with a friendship partner to mentor and help you get familiar with American rules & regulations, finding stores, understanding school policies, and more!
If you are curious to learn more about the Bible and what it says about God, we can connect you with a group that suits you or one-on-one teaching with an American friend.

What Are Bible Conversations?
A warm and welcoming space for internationals and non-native English speakers to practice English together through the stories of the Bible!
Each week we read a Bible passage aloud, explore vocabulary, and dig into what the Scriptures mean and how they apply to everyday life — all through open conversation and connection. The more we interact, the more we all learn together! Every class begins and ends with prayer.
✅ Free to attend
✅ No English proficiency required
✅ You do not need to be a Christian to join us
We'd love to have you — all are welcome!

Get Involved
If you have a heart for international people and other cultures, we would love to connect with you.
Make new friends, learn about other cultures, and share the love of Jesus as you “teach” English or the Bible through conversations. EFL classes are Thursday mornings and then Bible Conversations are either Tuesday mornings or Friday evenings.
