  • Lenten regulations

    ·        May Lent be for us all a season of turning more deeply to Our Lord and serving others in charity!  

    ·        Abstaining from meat is required for Catholics 14 years old and older on Ash Wednesday and the Fridays during Lent.  Meat is the flesh of warm-blooded creatures.  Eggs and fish are not meat.                          

    ·        Fasting also is required on Ash Wednesday (February 26) and Good Friday (April 10) for Catholics who have reached their 18th birthday and have not reached their 59th.  This fasting means one full meal at any time, and eating two other times a total of food less than or equal to one full meal.  This fast includes avoiding food between meals.  For this fast, beverages like coffee, milk, and juice are not food.             

    ·        Catholics are encouraged to continue the Good Friday fast until the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday night.

    ·        The Eucharistic Fast is required of all Catholics preparing to receive the Holy Eucharist on any day. This means avoiding all food and beverages for one hour before Mass -- water and medicine being the only exception.
