SOAK UP THE GOOD NEWS BEFORE THE WEEKEND!
Listed below are links to the Sunday readings for the current liturgical year. Also included are links for Holy/Moveable Feast Days readings. If you're looking to dive into the Good News prior to hearing the readings at Mass each weekend, these are priceless treasures guaranteed to advance the Kingdom of God here on Earth.
According to the Constitution of the Sacred Liturgy promulgated by the Second Vatican Council, "Within the cycle of a year. . . (the Church) unfolds the whole mystery of Christ, not only from his incarnation and birth until his ascension, but also as reflected in the day of Pentecost, and the expectation of a blessed, hoped-for return of the Lord."
Reading and studying the Good News linked below, in advance of the Mass they are listed for, will assuredly enhance one's understanding of the readings at the Mass itself and bring one in closer Communion with the Living Water offered to all of us by the King of all kings Himself.
