This project targets non-literate adults and vulnerable youth, aiming to empower them to read basic signs, documents, and the Bible. In 2025, the program aims to provide literacy training across three provinces. 

Conducted in community settings, the classes focus on reading, numeracy, and essential life skills like nutrition, cooking and horticulture. Through four full-time staff and 19 facilitators, this project maintains 20 groups in three provinces, benefiting 650 participants. This positively influences families and communities, with an estimated 3,250 indirect beneficiaries. 

Objectives include achieving a Grade 6 literacy standard, evidenced by exams and enhanced confidence. Graduates are expected to deepen their understanding of the Bible and their role in the Kingdom of God, demonstrated by regular Bible reading and church involvement. The ultimate aim is an improved overall quality of life, observable through the practical application of life skills in their daily routines. 

In 2025, this project will directly impact 650 participants. Mozambicans who are given the opportunity to learn to read and write, experience a sense of self-worth and personal value. The ability to read the Bible and learn of God’s love and grace and his redemptive plan for each individual is transformative. 

The classes are run in local churches, whose pastors partner with Mission Educate, which promotes community transformation, as well as developing unity amongst pastors and local congregations. 

The Literacy for Life Project will transform individuals, families and communities. Church congregations are expected to be transformed with an increase in literate members who can read the Bible and engage in meaningful Bible discussions, encouraging the formation of personal faith.
