Excellent resource for dismissal catechesis.

I have been using "A Catechumen's Lectionary in my parish RCIA process for several years now.It has proved to be an excellent tool for catechists and sponsors as well as the catechumens and the candidates.All three cycles (A,B,and C) are included as well as reflection questions for each week's readings written by several authors.I highly recommend its use .
