The usual translation of the Scriptures used at Mass in England and Wales is the Jerusalem Bible translation. Regrettably that text is not available on line in a complete and searchable form. However you can find the readings for Mass on the Universalis website.

​The readings for the coming week are freely available on that Website. You can also take out a subscription which gives you access on your PC/Tablet or smartphone to the readings for each day of the year, and the full texts of the Prayer of the Church, including the celebrations particular to the Archdiocese of Birmingham

The two most accessible searchable translations that are available on-line are the English Standard Version, and the New American Bible.

• A free App is available for you to access the English Standard Version on your Tablet, Kindle or smartphone.​

The Bigger Picture group offers an opportunity to anyone who is interested to come together once or twice during the month to deepen their knowledge of Scripture and to pray the word of God.
