Documents and References

  • Online Bibles
    • Daily readings, with the actual readings right there, courtesy of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops.
    • The New American Bible (which is the Bible used by most Catholics in the U.S.), also courtesy of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops; includes a good FAQ that answers questions about the differences between Catholic and Protestant Bibles, a glossary, questions about the Lectionary, and other details.
    • Another site with the Bible, with multiple versions available and supporting searches.
    • Revised Standard Version (another "Catholic" Bible), also supporting searches. (This was one of the very first sites on the web to have the Bible, especially with a search. The site also has other versions of the Bible and other important documents.)
  • When is Easter?
  • Sacred Space: Daily Prayer Online is a site designed by the Irish Jesuits. It has a daily prayer based on the readings for the day to help you pray right at your computer. Great for a short, calming break from the stress of work or everyday life in general!
  • Gather Faithfully Together: A Guide for Sunday Mass, pastoral letter on the Eucharist by Cardinal Roger Mahony, Archbishop of Los Angeles.
  • There is also a letter from Archbishop Hanus on the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People
  • A web page on marriage preparation -- lots of links in the last half of the page for reading material for marriage prep and links to other Catholic resources.
