National leaders, ministries, and everyday Americans will lend their voices to a historic, weeklong Bible-reading event at the Museum of the Bible, to commemorate America’s 250th birthday in 2026.
Actress, producer, New York Times bestselling author, and Great American Media Chief Creative Officer Candace Cameron Bure has been named one of the national spokespersons for America Reads the Bible, a landmark event taking place in the nation’s capital from April 18-25, 2026. The entire Great American Media team is engaged in advancing the mission and message of this historic initiative that will feature voices from across the country reading Scripture, and uniting Americans around faith and the enduring power of the Bible.
“Candace has been a trusted voice for faith and family values for decades, and we’re honored to have her serve as a top spokesperson for America Reads the Bible,” said Bill Abbott, President and CEO of Great American Media. “Recent tragedy has reminded us how important it is to come together around faith and prayer. This historic event will allow us to share God’s Word in a way that will uplift and strengthen our country. We are honored to be part of such a meaningful celebration.”
Cameron Bure stars in and produces original, faith-forward entertainment, including Great American Christmas films. Her Christian faith and commitment to wholesome storytelling have made her a leading voice in family entertainment.
“Candace’s deep commitment to faith and family makes her a powerful advocate for this historic initiative,” said Bunni Pounds, founder of Christians Engaged, the organization spearheading America Reads the Bible. The event will be produced by Great American Media and streamed live on Great American Pure Flix.
