Welcome to the Year-At-A-Glance. This is a listing of all Sundays and special days in the Church Year, with the pericope readings for each of them, from the Lutheran Service Book (LSB). The color of the week is shown for each week.
For those weeks where the Sunday coincides with a minor festival (which is usually celebrated when it does so), both the normal pericope for the Sunday in question AND the minor festival are listed. Your church typically chooses which of the two to celebrate that week.
A similar chart is available from CPH in either paper or downloadable form.
PLEASE contact us if you notice any problems in this listing or have any suggestions for improvement. It is obviously a very human effort to bring all this information together on one page, and there may be mistakes here. We will correct any that are brought to our attention.
Click on the Festival column to see service notes for the Sunday in question from pericope.org.
The Psalm column has the Psalm of the day listed, followed by the Antiphon verse.
Mouse over or click on the individual bible passages to use the refTagger system to view the text for the day.
