When people can read, they can hear personally from God in His Word. Access to God&#8217;s Word allows people to compare any teaching they hear to His unchanging written truth. The Word of God becomes an anchor to their growth in the faith. And, they can use other written materials to teach their children and in outreach.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>The students practiced the principles of literacy and the amazing software that we use to write literacy lessons. Then they practiced teaching one of their lessons to the rest of the class. We look forward to working with them in the future wherever God may send them!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We recently returned from England and the missionary training center where we had the privilege of helping with the literacy course.
