Home Talk Times
We take God's equal love of all people -- every tribe, nation and tongue -- to heart at Kent Covenant! (Revelation 7:9)
In the Kent Community, there are many people newly immigrated to the US seeking to learn English. At Kent Covenant, you can meet people from other nations, build relationships with them and be used by God for His purposes by speaking conversational English with them. It's called Talk Times.
Talk Times will meet on Tuesdays, 7:00 - 8:30 P.M., beginning June 2. Each evening we will start with a light snack and an activity then follow with a short whole group time to introduce the evening’s topic, practice pronunciation, introduce idioms and/or make announcements. Most of the evening will be spent in small group, guided conversation time. Conversation sheets with questions and guidance, picture dictionaries and other visual aids will be provided.
We're targeting to have enough English speakers to have a one on one tutor to student ratio. Because our hope is that you will build relationships with our International guests we would like you to commit to being there every Tuesday. If, however, you want to be involved but just can’t make it all the time we still want you to come when you can. I think you’ll get hooked as you help others!
Childcare is available by reservation. Please call 253-631-0222, ext. 311 and leave a message. You only need to reserve child care once for the 11 week session.
Respond to Cathy Nordman if you want more information. You can sign up online (courses) or at the Welcome Center.
