WHAT

A Bible Readathon is 90 continuous hours of reading the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, without commentary.  Up to 350 people can participate.  Readers will be reading from the King James Bible (large print bible on the podium) and may read for 15 minutes.

WHO

Anyone who would like to read God’s Word publicly is invited to participate. Children! Teenagers! Pastors! Politicians! Snowbirds! Anyone can participate.  Reading is done round the clock, so time slots are available day and night.

WHY

We read His Holy Word publicly to honor God and share His Word with the residents of Venice, Florida and its visitors, as an act of faith that God will accomplish what He would like to do in the City of Venice.

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11
