2021 Literacy Missions Workshops

New for 2021! The ABSC Missions Team is combining two popular workshops (Literacy Missions and Bible Storying) into one incredible Missions training event! Join other Arkansas Baptists who are committed to reaching people for Christ for the Literacy Missions / Bible Storying Workshop held at the Baptist Building. Each workshop is designed specifically to assist churches in incorporating the Gospel into their local ministry needs.

Participants have the option of choosing one of the following:

 

You may choose from one of two Literacy Missions Courses we are offering (Friday-Saturday) OR you may choose Bible Storying (Saturday only)

 

ESL (English as a Second Language) and Tutoring Children and Youth trainings are led by North American Mission Board/Send Relief certified trainers. Upon completion of the workshop, participants receive certification given through the National Literacy Missions Partnership.
