Center of Concern: Education For Justice

Sunday Readings

Lectionary Connection

The biblical call to justice is evident and present throughout the liturgical cycle. The Sunday readings provide rich texts to explore this biblical call.

These Lectionary Reflections are designed to assist you in making the connections between the liturgical readings and the call to be people of love and justice. Each lectionary reflection features the following:

• Sunday readings
• Calendar highlights for the coming week
• Quotes from Catholic Social Teaching and other relevant sources which echo themes from the readings.
• Thoughts for your consideration
• Questions for reflection and discussion
• Action Links promoting ways to live the gospel actively
• Prayers of Intercession connected to the readings and promoting justice
• Prayer

Lectionary readings and reflection are significant ways to keep Catholic Social Teaching and social justice part of our ongoing attention. Fr. John Bucki, SJ, is the editor/writer of this section
