LITERATURE
The Dorothea Mission has its own printing workshop where our news- and prayer letters and literature are printed.
The following literature is printed and used in the work:
BIBLE CORRESPONDENCE COURSES
This is one of the methods that we use to follow up on converts. The first course explains the Way of Salvation in a simple way while the next two teach the basics of the Christian faith. A few more courses are available.
Courses are available in Afrikaans, English, Sotho, Pedi (Northern Sotho), Tswana, Zulu, Xhosa, Chewa, Shangaan (Tsonga) and Shona. Costs are kept very low to make it accessible to everybody.
Unfortunately we can only supply these courses to the countries where the Dorothea Mission works.

TRACTS
Tracts are an effective tool in personal evangelism. Although we mainly print tracts for our own use, several of our friends order tracts from us to distribute in their area. If you are burdened to reach out to people in your area, you should consider the distribution of tracts.
Tracts can be ordered for R10 per 100. (Postage excluded).
How to use tracts:
Often the mistake is made of simply giving every passer-by a tract. Such tracts often end up on the ground or in the bin. Rather use it as a contact point. Make sure the tract is suitable for the person’s particular need and that he or she really wants to read it. Used this way, you’ll find the tract serves at least two purposes:
(1) it makes it easier to start the conversation and share spiritual things with a stranger that you would like to help to find the Lord, and
(2) it gives the person something to take home with him to reinforce the message.
Remember to pray for each person you give a tract to, because ultimately it is God alone who can draw the sinner to Himself.
If you wish to order any of these tracts you are welcome to do so.
