Psalms

The Propers below are readings for Ordinary Time following Epiphany and Pentecost, numbered to help establish a seven day range of dates on which they can occur.  Propers numbering in the Revised Common Lectionary begins with the Sixth Sunday in Epiphany,  excludes Sundays in Lent through Pentecost and Trinity Sunday, and resumes the Second Sunday after Pentecost, usually with Proper 4.  Since the date of Easter is variable between March 22 and April 25, some Propers are not used in certain years.  The Roman Catholic Lectionary and those based on it number the Propers differently.

The Church Year begins with Advent in November/December.
We are presently in  Year A  of readings in the Revised Common Lectionary.
 beginning with Advent, December 1, 2019
Year B:  2017-2018; 2020-2021
Year C:  2015-2016; 2018-2019
Year A:  2016-2017, 2019-2020
