Hello Everyone, I’m new to the forum and I have a question I’m sure someone here can answer for me. I always used to pray the Office and kind of fell out of the habit, so I was wondering… What week is it? Is there a website that tells you what week the Church is on? I googled it but couldn’t find anything. Usually, if I get confused with feast days and such I just ask in the confessional… but seeing as how its Tuesday, I’d rather pick back up with this most wonderful prayer tonight! Thank you! 🙂
 
I’m 99% sure it’s Week II.

My Shorter Christian Prayer, in the propers section, has the week number for each Sunday; this past Sunday, the 18th of OT, was noted as Week II.

I hope that’s a suitable guide for me! [suddenly nervous]

AND WELCOME TO THE CAF!

Here you go, Rachele Ann (18th week):

universalis.com/-400/today.htm
 
For what it’s worth, multiples of 4 are always the 4th week in the Psalter –

4th week in Ordinary Time = week 4
8th week in Ordinary Time = week 4
12th week in Ordinary Time = week 4
16th week in Ordinary Time = week 4

Then you can work forward or backward from there:

7th week in Ordinary Time = week 3
13th week in Ordinary Time = week 1
18th week in Ordinary Time = week 2
etc.
 
week 1 (of ordinary time) is week 1
2 =2
3=3
4=4
5 goes back to 1
6=2
7=3
8=4 etc., ect., ect.

for the seasons of Advent, Lent, and Easter - it’s the same

1,2,3,4 = 1,2,3,4.
