Basic Scripture Literacy Course

The Basic Literacy Gospel Course is produced by the Church Education System. Information on it can be found at the preceeding link. The course is specifically to help those members of the Church who can not read gain basic literacy skills.

The Literacy program of the Church for those who can read focuses on finding ways to increase gospel scholarship. Some units do book clubs. I am in process of writing a “dictionary” for some confusing scripture terms as part of my job as Education Counsellor that I will eventually post here. A idea might be to choose a difficult to pronounce word (patriarchal is one) and practice it, or you could learn the definitions of some of the more archaic words found in scripture. This could be done as a 60 second literacy minute on Sundays, or you could put a note in your newsletter.

Hope this helps,
