Lectionary
What’s a “lectionary”?
A lectionary is a schedule of scripture readings pre-arranged to correspond to the church year. We follow the Revised Common Lectionary - a 3-year cycle that focuses on the Gospel of Matthew the first year, the Gospel of Mark the second year, and the Gospel of Luke the third year.
Why do we use a lectionary?
We don’t have to follow the lectionary, and there are occasional worship services in which the preaching pastor chooses a different Bible passage. But for the most part, following the lectionary ensures that a wide range of biblical texts are shared during worship.
How do I follow the lectionary schedule?
To see the Sunday lectionary texts for the next few Sundays, go to Upcoming Sundays. To read past and future daily lectionary texts online, go to Revised Common Lectionary (opens in new window.)
