NEW LECTIONARY: A new edition of the Lectionary will come into use in England and Wales on the first Sunday of Advent. The Lectionary is a book which contains the readings for Mass (Sundays and Weekdays), for Saints and Sacraments, and other occasions, such as funerals.
The new Lectionary is a fresh iteration of something we all ready know. Various new feast and memorials have been added to the Liturgical Calendar since 1981 and these are included in the new Lectionary.
