Sunday Mass Readings 2026–2027 (Year B): Catholic Readings

From the First Sunday of Advent (November 29, 2026) to Christ the King (November 21, 2027), the Church reads Sunday Year B of the Lectionary, the year of the Gospel of Mark. Below are the readings for every Sunday and holy day of the 2026–2027 liturgical year, plus the last Sundays of Year A in 2026: the first reading, the responsorial psalm, the second reading and the Gospel, with a link to the Prayers of the Faithful for each day. The box shows the readings for the coming Sunday or holy day.

This Sunday’s readings

How the Sunday readings are arranged

Three-year cycle: Year A reads mainly from Matthew, Year B from Mark (with John 6, the Bread of Life discourse, in the summer), and Year C from Luke. John’s Gospel is read in Lent and Easter every year.
Four readings: a first reading (usually from the Old Testament, in Easter time from the Acts of the Apostles), a responsorial psalm, a second reading from the letters of the apostles, and the Gospel.
The first reading and the Gospel are chosen to shed light on each other; the second reading usually follows a letter of St. Paul or another apostle from week to week.
Year C begins on the First Sunday of Advent, November 28, 2027.

The citations below follow the Lectionary for Mass used in the United States. For the full texts, see the USCCB daily readings; for how the psalm works, see the responsorial psalm.

Frequently asked questions

What year of the Sunday readings is 2026–2027?

Year B. It begins on the First Sunday of Advent, November 29, 2026, and ends with Christ the King, November 21, 2027.

Where can I read the full text of the Sunday readings?

In your parish missalette, in the Lectionary for Mass, or on the USCCB website. The citations above let you find them in any Catholic Bible.

Why are some readings marked “or”?

The Lectionary sometimes offers a choice between two readings, or a longer and a shorter form of the same reading. The priest chooses which is read.

Are the readings the same in every country?

The citations are the same throughout the Roman Rite, except where a solemnity is moved (for example, the Ascension and Corpus Christi are celebrated on Sunday in most US dioceses).
