Resources for the Week | 06/26 - 07/03

This week we have switched our lectionary to the one found in "For All the Saints: A Prayer Book For and By the Church". This is a lectionary that was designed to be used across all denominations, and I think this is something we all value - emphasizing the unity of the Body of Christ (the Church) in practical ways such as reading Scripture together across all denominations.

As a result, you will notice this week we'll be reading a couple of times from the book of "Ecclesiasticus", which is an Apocryphal book. Typically not included in the Protestant Bible, it is read by Catholics and some Anglicans (I think?! Matt A, am I right?). If you print out your resources, use the Divine Offices Calendar to find these texts as I imagine none of us have a Bible with the Apocrypha in it!

The resources for this week can be found here:
Once-A-Day Approach for June 26 - July 3
Divine Offices/Hours for June 26 - July 3.
(Note that if you print out the Divine Offices, I've changed the format so that they can fit on ONE double-sided page!)
