We are getting ready to start our year of meetings and classes beginning September 4.
We are excited to welcome our fabulous volunteer staff. This amazing group of people come from all over the greater Indianapolis area to help you become comfortable in our community, make friends and learn English.
We are grateful to Cornerstone Lutheran Church for opening her doors and providing us with rooms for our meetings and classes. We are thankful to the church for staffing the nursery on Tuesday and Thursdays 9:00-11:30 so that parents of small children can come to our meetings and take classes and be sure that their children are in good hands. This is a service provided by the church. Cornerstone is looking for staff and volunteers. Find out more and contact Cathy Graves to help out
Please register on line so we can begin to prepare for you: International Friends Registration. We are using the registration program from Cornerstone, but your information is separate from the church database and only accessible by Carolyn and the data administrators.
Check out our webpages to learn about our programs and the Indiana community. Sign up to get our updates emailed to you
Please enter Door 6. The other doors are secure to keep the preschool children safe.
Join us September 4 as we select what book of the Bible we will read and discuss this year. The Bible has been translated into most languages and provides a great opportunity to read in your home language and discuss in English. You do not have to be a believer or follower of Christianity to come to this class. Childcare is available in the staffed nursery (this service is free to our students).
International Friends: Tuesdays 10:00-12:00, room 100 beginning September 4
Join us for friendship, fun and fieldtrips! Come and meet new friends and learn about living in Indiana and share good food and great conversation. Childcare is available in the staffed nursery (this service is free to our students).
English Class Registration: 9:30-12:00, upstairs classrooms September 6
Come and get screened for the best class for you if you are a new student. Come and pay your fees for the year: $65 for Thursdays and $35 for Wednesdays. Register for classes in person or preregister.
English Classes: 9:00-11:30 beginning September 13
- Begin in room 101 to meet your teacher.
- Please preregister so we can prepare for you!
- We offer four levels of English classes (introductory through conversation), American Accent Training and a new Parent and Child class.
- Childcare is available in the staffed nursery (this service is free to our students).
As always, your youngsters are welcome to join you in our classes.
We are also piloting the opportunity for parents and children to meet together in a classroom to learn songs, read books, play and converse. Please email Carolyn if this is of interest to you so we can plan ahead.

Come up the stairs and join us for unleveled conversation in English. Childcare is provided in classrooms nearby by our volunteer staff.
