Minister Arlene Foster reads at Good Book Shop as part of KJV@400

Northern Ireland Minister Arlene Foster, MLA, Minister for Enterprise Trade & Investment, took part today (Thursday 20 January 2011) in the KJV@4:00 initiative at the Church of Ireland’s Good Book Shop, Belfast. The Minister read chapters from Exodus as part of the venture to mark 400th Anniversary of King James Bible in 2011.

At 4.00 p.m. on each weekday of business over the course of 2011, a passage from the King James Bible is being read aloud in the shop so that the entire bible will be read in a year.

The Revd Simon Richardson, Rector of Hillsborough (pictured above, with the Minister and Richard Ryan, Good Book Shop Manager), also read as part of today's event.

There are still some slots for reading available. If anyone is interested in becoming a reader, please e-mail Richard Ryan at [email protected] or phone 028 9024 4825.
