Black and White Illustrations
We are now offering black and white art images for each Sunday or Special Day that are specially modified for use in print materials, online worship, or church websites. They are designed for reflection upon the Gospel reading. The only restriction for using the images is that they are identified and used for non-commercial purposes. It can be accessed on the lectionary site under Resources > Illustrations. Please offer feedback, as we continue to develop this tool.
Daily Lectionary Readings
Daily readings expand the range of biblical reading in worship and personal devotion by providing daily citations for the full three-year cycle of the Revised Common Lectionary. These readings complement the Sunday and festival readings: Thursday through Saturday readings help prepare the reader for the Sunday ahead; Monday through Wednesday readings help the reader reflect on and digest what they heard in worship. You can also find the readings by looking for the “Daily” link on the Sunday and Special Days scripture text pages on the right sidebar of the screen. It can also be accessed on the lectionary site under Resources > Daily Readings.
Print PDF Formats
We offer a wide variety of printable formats that arrange the Lectionary readings for use as a handout, bulletin insert, or Bible study tool. The print PDFs are also linked via the “Print PDFs” link on the right sidebar of the scripture text pages. It can also be accessed on the lectionary site under Resources > Print PDFs. Please offer feedback, as we continue to develop these tools.
