Some ideas for observing the day (from paragraph 3 of AI):

1. Enthronment of the scriptures at Mass
2. Highlighting the proclamation of the word and emphasizing in the homily the honor it is due
3. Celebrate the rite for commissioning readers
4. Hold a workshop and/or day of reflection for readers
5. Offer formation on lectio divina
6. Give away a Bible, or the Gospels, or eve one of its books to the entire assembly

Here are a couple of other ways that we might honor the word:

1. First, Given the Holy Father's emphasis on the importance of the Scriptures, and in the honor it is due, I would add that we should be proclaiming the readings from dignified ritual books - not looseleaf lectionaries or, even more troubling, from sheets of paper (as is often seen at weddings and funerals) that are then simply thrown away.
2. Outside of issues of hearing impariment, we ought to be listening to the proclamation of the word at Mass... not reading along. The proclamation of the word is a dialogue, it is relational. Read ahead of time for information; listen with your ears -- and with the ears of your heart-- at Mass, for encounter and transformation.

EVENT

We would like to invite everyone to observe this special day by joining us for an afternoon of prayer and reflection on the Spirituality and Ministry of the Reader. Together, led by Dr. Ella Johnson, theology professor at St. Ambrose University, we’ll explore how our spiritual lives are enriched by being rooted in the Bible, whether we formally proclaim the Scriptures at Mass, or do so informally by our lives. Please join us on Sunday, January 26th at St. John Vianney Church in Bettendorf. The session starts at 1:30 and will be about two hours in length. Refreshments will be provided. All are invited!
