The lectionary
Every Sunday of the three-year Common Worship cycle: readings, colours, and what each one changes in the service.
The Church of England's principal service lectionary runs on a three-year cycle. Every one of the 157 Sundays and principal feasts below has its own page: the readings in both Old Testament tracks, the liturgical colour, the dates it next falls on, and what changes in the order of service.
