UCC In the Word
January 11, 2024
Have you ever thought of reading the Bible through in one year?
By David Jamieson
UCC President
Upper Columbia Conference invites you to participate in UCC In the Word, a journey through the 66 Books of the Bible, surveying God’s gracious work from creation to the cross to the consummation of time.
It takes as little as 15 minutes a day with our One Year Bible Plan. And every Saturday morning, many of UCC's pastors will be preaching on what you’ve read during the week.
If reading through the Bible is something you’ve always wanted to do, then join us for UCC In the Word: Reading Through the Bible in One Year.
Beginning Saturday, January 13, 2024 at a church near you! For more information visit
