Participating in multilingual community through intentional and reciprocal acts of hospitality.

Multilingual Ministry is for everyone.

In an increasingly multilingual society, multilingual ministry is an important consideration for the Church. Together we are cultivating principles and practices of language hospitality through growing together in our understanding of language, leadership, & learning.

  • Language

    Language hospitality encompasses an appreciation for linguistic diversity. Principles of language hospitality identify and value the relationships between identity, community, belonging, and multilingualism.

  • Leadership

    Language Hospitality is a journey that depends on healthy collaborative leadership rooted in biblical wisdom. Inviting a community into a season of change is a process that requires deep reflection and authentic collaboration.

  • Learning

    Language Hospitality is an invitational approach to community learning. Practices of language hospitality invite communities to delight in reciprocal learning as an act of shared hospitality.
