Celebrating the Lectionary™ for high school calls high school teens to base their words, decisions, and actions on the message of the Sunday Gospel. Use of this resource as part of a high school religion curriculum or youth ministry program will help teens to explore their Catholic identity through the words of the Lectionary, discuss related passages from major Church documents, and grow to be familiar with the solemnities, feasts, and memorials of the liturgical year. This resource is written for high school teenagers in grades 9-12 (approximately ages 14-18).

Celebrating the Lectionary™ provides quick reflections on the Gospel readings for all Sundays and holy days of obligation from August 5, 2012 through June 30, 2013. Each session is designed to be 15-20 minutes long and requires no preparation or special materials. This makes it easy for catechists or Catholic school teachers to supplement primary curriculum with Lectionary-based material that enables young people and their families to remain connected to the cycle of readings, an ancient source of Catholic identity and community, even if they do not regularly attend Mass.
