The Lectionary takes us through the Church year which begins with the season of Advent in November. Christmas lasts 12 days. Then comes Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and the season after Pentecost.
The Year A Lectionary focuses on key passages from Matthew, including the Baptism of Jesus, Jesus' temptation, the Sermon on the Mount, and Jesus' miracles.
