Notes:

  1. Throughout the USA, the Epiphany of the Lord is now celebrated on the 2nd Sunday after Christmas; thus readings #20-ABC are used instead of #19-ABC.
  2. In much of the USA, the Ascension of the Lord is now celebrated on the 7th Sunday of Easter; thus readings #58-ABC are used instead of #59-A, 60-B, or 61-C.
  3. Selections from the Old Testament are used as the First Reading throughout most of the year; only during the Easter Season is the First Reading taken from the Acts of the Apostles.
  4. On a few Sundays and major Feasts, a "Canticle" from the Old Testament is used in place of the Responsorial Psalm (between the First and Second Readings).
  5. Selections from the NT Epistles are used as the Second Readings throughout the year, while the third/last reading is always from one of the four canonical Gospels.
