 Readings:

Isaiah 40, 1-11, Comfort, give comfort to my people, says your God.

Psalm 104,  O, Bless the Lord, my soul.

Titus  2, 11-14, 3, 4-7, The grace of God has appeared.

Luke 3, 15-16, 21-22, With you I am well pleased.

 For those who don’t have a decent Bible or a book of the readings, here are two links that I use, The Bible at Your Fingertips and USCCB, The New American Bible. 

The difference?  The first is Protestant more or less, and the second is officially Catholic and has the 12 little books in between the O.T. & N.T., called Deuterocanonical or Apocrypha. 

Both are good translations.     

  Community Bulletin Board:
