Bible-a-thon
August 30, 2017 @ 4:00 pm - September 3, 2017 @ 3:00 am
The Bible is being read continuously at St Christopher’s Church, Avonhead from the beginning of Genesis to the end of Revelation from Wed 30 August, starting at 4 pm until the last verse is read in the early hours of Sunday 3 September. Reading slots are 30 minutes. You are welcome to come and sign up for a reading slot, or just come into the church at any time and hear whatever is being read at that time. When this event was held 4 years ago, readers’ comments included:
- “To be in the church and reading aloud God’s word was a wonderful experience and one I would repeat any time”
- “What a special blessing – a quiet church at 4.30am and just me and God’s word”
- “It was time in the church knowing the Angels and God were there as well as the various readers coming and going”
- “It was such fun!”
You can sign up on the sheets in the parish office during the week or at St Christopher’s church on Sundays between 8.00am and 10.30am. Anyone can do a reading!
