NAME
Date::Lectionary::Time - Find your way in time relative to Sundays.

VERSION
Version 1.20180422

SYNOPSIS
Working in the liturgical time of the lectionary means tracking time
relative to Sundays. This is a quick utility to find the next, previous,
or the closest Sunday to a given date. Further, it can determine if the
date given is a Sunday or not.

use Time::Piece;
use Date::Lectionary::Time qw(nextSunday prevSunday closestSunday isSunday);

my $christmasDay = Time::Piece->strptime("2015-12-25", "%Y-%m-%d");

if (isSunday($christmasDay)) {
say "Christmas is on a Sunday!";
}
else {
say "Christmas isn't on a Sunday.";
}

my $sundayAfterChristmas = nextSunday($christmasDay);
my $sundayBeforeChristmas = prevSunday($christmasDay);
my $sundayClosestToChristmas = closestSunday($christmasDay);
