Women's literacy: the reason for this blog

I reflect in hindsight it probably should've posted this topic sooner, but I frankly didn't know how to write a post about it considering what I was doing was not directly affecting these women. Everything I was reading and hearing was so inspiring I had to post it here.

Here is a video about what is being done to help women learn to read and write their native language.

"South Asian believers are immersed in an anti-Christian society. How will they stand firm in their faith if they can't read the Bible?"

Not only do women learn to read the Bible, thereby deepening their faith, by learning to read they are protected from being manipulated by their lack of knowledge. Even churches supported by Gospel for Asia's programs are struggling because one out of 3 people cannot read.
