Did you know? (Sunday, December 17, 2023)

Our Province uses three sets of Bible readings – for Sundays, for weekday celebrations of the Eucharist and for Morning and Evening Prayer. These are to be found in our Book of Common Prayer, beginning on pages 668, 707 and 734 respectively. During most of the year, the Sunday readings include: a reading from the Hebrew Bible, a Psalm, a reading from the Epistles, and a Gospel reading. During the season of Easter, the Hebrew Bible lection is usually replaced with one from the Acts of the Apostles. The lections from the Hebrew Bible are sometimes chosen from the Apocrypha.
