Advent I Readings

This year the Advent season begins on Sunday. December 3. One of the great themes of Advent is a renewal of devotion to and attention to Holy Scripture. Ideally, every clergyman and many of the laity participate in Daily Morning and Evening Prayer. In fact, even many devoted individuals only have significant devotional time once a day and shorter prayers at other times. With that reality in mind, here is a basic list of Scripture readings for each day of the week.

Psalms and Lessons for MORNING PRAYER (according to the 1945 lectionary in the 1928 BCP)
