This outstanding website is an international Jesuit outreach of Saint Louis University in the USA. The Sunday Website supplies the coming Sunday’s readings, prayers for contemplation on these readings, aspects of spirituality found in them, and relevant background information. Since the Catholic Lectionary and the Revised Common Lectionary proclaim the same readings on many Sundays of the year, this is a valuable ecumenical resource for clergy and laity from Catholic and Protestant traditions alike.
