Welcome to the new CELEA website!  This is the “home” of the Christian English Language Educators Association (CELEA).  We have been in existence for 25 years in various forms – first as the informal Christian Educators in TESOL group which formed in 1984 at the Houston TESOL convention.  We were then the Christian Educators in TESOL Caucus (CETC) from 1996 until 2008.  Now we are an independent organization.  Consider CELEA to be your professional organization – to network with other educators who share a belief in Jesus Christ and to be a resource center for those involved in ESL – both at the professional and volunteer level.  I am so thankful for this organization over the past years as it has provided networking and support.  I am excited about the future and for all the potential it holds for the growth of CELEA!
