Readings

St. Hilda's follows a cycle of readings in the Liturgy called the Revised Common Lectionary.  Every Sunday we read from the Hebrew Scriptures, the Christian Testament and the Holy Gospel.  The lectionary is a cycle or calendar of readings that goes through much of the Bible in a three year period.  For 2017 (beginning on the first Sunday of Advent in 2016) we will be in the lectionary cycle for Year A http://lectionary.library.vanderbilt.edu/  

 At various times, readings from Good As New: A Radical Retelling of the Scriptures or from the Message are also used. Stories and poems from more contemporary voices may also be incorporated into the "Lessons".
