Episode notes

.Struggling to fit in in a new place? That struggle can be even more challenging when the new place comes with a new language. This week we sit down with leaders in Trinity’s English as a Second Language Program to talk about how this important ministry creates space not just for learning English, but also for growing deeper in friendships and faith. We talk about how the ESL program got started, how it continued through the COVID-19 pandemic, and what the program looks like today. We also dive into some stories of community and connection including how ESL creates an opportunity to share the love of Jesus across cultural and ethnic boundaries.
