A SIMPLE DEVOTION PLAN- Here at St. Mark we follow the three-year lectionary which is used by Christians through-out the world. The lectionary may be read devotionally in the following manner: In this way, a person would hear/read the appointed readings three times during the week in a meditative way, a good approach for those who are new to reading and studying the Bible, or for those who would like to prepare by contemplating the theme for Sunday’s Divine Service and Pastor’s sermon. The readings for next Sunday March 12th: Genesis 12:1–9; Romans 4:1–8, 13–17; John 3:1–17
