    We're working on picking out the readings for our Catholic ceremony.  Anyone have ideas for New Testament and Gospel readings?  We already have the Old Testament reading.

    We have a booklet from which we had to pick all three readings.  Mr. Bruschetta and I read each of them several times aloud to find the ones that seemed to fit us best.

    Is the booklet called "Together for Life"?  We have that one too.  Which ones did you pick?

    Erm, I need to check and get back to you on that -- the book is buried somewhere in the other room! 

    We definitely didn't do Corinthians or any of the other ones that are used VERY frequently...nor any reading that identified the woman as needing to be submissive.  I'm waaaay to much of a feminist for that!  Catholic ceremony readings :  wedding readings religion religious ceremony Icon Wink

    Yeah that's what I'm struggling with.  We are using Ruth 1:16 for the old testament reading (Entreat me not to leave me....that one).  We looked through the book but I didn't find any that I absolutely love.  This ceremony stuff is hard!!

    I was given a website that had several reading options. They may be the same as your book though. The website is:
