Here are the June 2026 Bible readings that we’ll be using in our churches as we begin the long stretch of ‘Ordinary Time’.

• June 7th – 1st of Trinity: Hosea 5:15-6:6; Romans 4:13-end; Matthew 9:9-13, 18-26;
• June 14th – 2nd of Trinity: Exodus 19:2-8a; Romans 5:1-8; Matthew 9:35-10:8 (or to 10:23);

• June 28th – 4th of Trinity: Jeremiah 28:5-9; Romans 6:12-end; Matthew 10:40-end;

If you don’t have access to a Bible, then please go to the Vanderbilt Divinity Library by following this link. It’s not always the same but it’s normally close.

In summary

• June 7th: These readings explore God’s mercy, healing, and the call to faithful trust. They centre on grace, restoration, and faith that reaches toward Christ in hope.
• June 14th: The themes here are covenant, compassion, and calling. They focus on being chosen, loved, and sent out in mission.
• June 21st: These readings address the cost of discipleship, courage, and faithful endurance. They explore costly faithfulness sustained by God’s presence.
• June 28th: The readings focus on truth, holy living, and the significance of small acts of faithfulness. They highlight integrity, discipleship, and everyday acts of compassion.

The June 2026 Bible readings also include this from Psalm 100…

A psalm of thanksgiving

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
    come into his presence with singing.

Know that the Lord is God.
It is he that made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his courts with praise.
    Give thanks to him, bless his name.

For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures for ever,
    and his faithfulness to all generations.
