About

The Metroplex Literacy Conference is a yearly gathering of faith and community-based ESL and adult literacy programs throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. It began in 2014 as partnership of LAMP (Literacy and Missions Partnership), an association of Christian ESL ministries. It’s purpose was to provide an extension to the TELL training provided to church-based programs through the North American Mission Board. It is held each year at Dallas Baptist University, in Pilgrim Chapel, on the first Saturday of March.

The Metroplex Literacy Conference features workshops for instruction in the areas of ESL, Citizenship, HSE/ESL, and ministry to internationals. These sessions are taught by experts in their fields.

While this year’s conference has passed, please feel free to browse the information from this year to get a taste of what we have to offer. Mark your calendars for March 6, 2027 for our next MLC Conference!
