     Resources
   The International Ministry offers many resources for those interested in spending extra time learning English, about American lifestyles and customs, or about the Christian faith.

The International Reading Room contains books, audio cassettes and videos on many subjects. Come early for class, or stay after class to watch a video of listen to audio tapes, do research or just read on your own. Children must be supervised.
