Chicago: Under the auspices of Cherupushpa Mission League, the Bible Reading Challenge started on a diocesan basis in Chicago.The Bible Reading Challenge is for the  catechism school with the purpose of guiding and inculcating in children through Bible reading.
. Children from classes 4 to 10 are included in this. At the beginning of this initiative, 27 books of the New Testament have been included in the first phase, starting from this month of November, without stopping until the month of April.
This initiative is structured. A Reading Log has been set up specially for this purpose in such a way that the children read each chapter of the New Testament every day under the supervision of their parents and religious teachers and hand it over to their religious teachers at the end of the month. For six months, read the respective Bible passages each day as recorded in the reading log Certificates of appreciation and very attractive gifts have been instituted at parish and diocesan level for all children who complete Bible reading.
