Daily Readings
The daily lectionary has been created to nurture our
faith and guide us in our daily living. The texts of this
daily lectionary invite us to engage the Scriptures in
light of the readings of the Sunday assembly. The
readings of Thursday through Saturday lead us to the upcoming Sunday's texts; the readings of Monday
through Wednesday reflect upon the previous
Sunday's texts. Practicing our faith through a
disciplined life which includes daily devotions enables
us to be more aware of our Lord's presence and call in
our lives as we seek to live faithfully in the midst of
our family and community.
