“This same Good News
that came to you
is going out
all over the world.
It is changing lives
everywhere,
just as it changed yours
that very first day
you heard
and understood
the truth about
God’s great kindness
to sinners.”
Colossians 1:6

ARW: Adult Reading and Writing

Be involved in Florida missions by teaching adults to read and write. Become a teacher of reading and writing to adults and reach out to the adult non-readers to share the love of Jesus.

• More than 20 percent of adults read at or below the fifth-grade level.
  
• 75 percent of unemployed adults have reading or writing difficulties.
  
• 70 percent of prisoners score in the lowest literacy levels.

Help make a difference by attending an Adult Reading and Writing Workshop to learn to share the gospel while teaching someone to read and write.

For training information, e-mail Cathy Lentz, State Literacy Coordinator, or call the Florida Baptist Convention/
Church and Community Ministries Department at 800-226-8584, ext. 3113.
