Sunday Lectionary
|
This shows Sundays, plus a few special holidays, for the three-year lectionary cycle. The final three columns (From, To, RCL) show the earliest and latest dates on which the reading may occur and the RCL notation for the reading. Note that each of the lines in the three columns Years A,B,C takes you to the appropriate reading for that date. The use of '---' means the reading is not being used for the year, but will still take you to the reading. Dates are correct for years A(2019-2020), B(2020-2021), C(2021-2022) |
