lectionary
Liturgical reading list
A lectionary is a book or list containing selections of scripture to be read during religious services, organized by date or occasion.
Most Christian denominations follow a lectionary that cycles through the Bible over one to three years, ensuring congregations hear a broad range of texts: The pastor consulted the lectionary to prepare Sunday's readings.
