Jacob has been working with a young man, Longiri, to teach him to read in Laarim. Despite the fact that Longiri has not been able to attend school, he is doing well at learning the alphabet and Jacob is hopeful that some time in the not-too-distant future, Longiri will be able to read. Pray that Longiri will persevere, and even be an encouragement to his unschooled friends that they too could learn to read. Pray they will be motivated to learn by a desire to read God’s Word for themselves.
