Catholic Reading of the Day
1,336 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 20 hours ago - ★★★★★ - 10 ratingsI started this podcast during the pandemic when I was recovering from treatment for cancer. I found that it was hard to find an audio version of today’s Mass Reading. At the time it was also hard for some people to get to Mass so I thought what can I do to help? This podcast brings you the readings from the Catholic lectionary for today. I hope that you find this podcast inspirational.
