Lectionary
A lectionary is a list of scriptural texts recommended for use in worship or study on a particular day.
Christian lectionaries are usually built around the church year.
Jonesboro UMC often follows the lectionary
readings, and reviewing them is a great way to prepare for this week’s worship
experience.
