Readings for the day · Time after Pentecost · All Four Lectionaries
The readings for October 31, 2028, in all four lectionaries
LSB Three-Year and Historic One-Year keep Reformation Day. Revised Common and Roman Catholic appoint no readings for this date. Both agree on the Gospel, the Epistle, the Old Testament and the Psalm.

Revised Common Lectionary and Roman Catholic Lectionary appoint no readings for this date, so they have no column above.
Every citation above opens its own page: the passage, verse-by-verse commentary, background and word study, the Church Fathers, and worship resources. An “or” line is the second track a lectionary offers for the same day, not a different Sunday. Agreement is judged by chapter, because the four rarely cut a passage to the same length.
