Join us for the Bible Marathon

When the Bible Marathon was first started, reading the Bible cover to cover without stopping had never been done in the world! Now, our special print of the Bible has traveled to numerous events where the Word of God has been proclaimed from cover to cover in the public square.  The event takes 100 hours to complete and 300 readers. Don't want to read? Just come sit and listen and Marinate and the Word!

Check back for the date of our 2025 Jubilee of the Word Bible Marathon.

Fire Truck Becomes the
Friar Truck

“Sound the alarm, and make way for the ‘Friar Truck’ and its first official call: January’s ‘Bible Marathon’ in St. Martinville, Louisiana. After this debut, it will continue carrying on its official duty — proclaiming the word of God from its eye-catching, antique mobile pulpit.

No one will be able to miss the message as the Friar Truck makes its rounds. It is the brainchild-innovation of the Community of Jesus Crucified in St. Martinville. On the driver’s side of the truck are emblazoned Jesus’ words from Luke, ‘I have come to cast a fire upon the earth.’”
