A Lectionary Resource for Catholics

Larry Broding, a Director of Religious Education in San Diego, has recently renewed his Web site: word-sunday.com. This is one of the best resource available online for background information on the Sunday readings. Larry presents the readings in separate sections for adults and children and does so in an engaging way for both. He has suggestions for family activities and a weekly podcast. Also of interest to catechists is his section called Index of Children's Catechism Links in which he has notes for catechesis on various themes under the following headings: Creed, Sacrament, Morality, Prayer. The site map makes it easy to locate specific scripture passages used in the lectionary over the three year liturgical cycle and is therefore a useful tools. This is a beautifully conceived Web site and an extremely rich resource. Highly recommended!
