    • "Let us not waste this season of Lent, so favourable a time for conversion! We ask this through the maternal intercession of the Virgin Mary, who, encountering the greatness of God’s mercy freely bestowed upon her, was the first to acknowledge her lowliness (cf. Lk 1:48) and to call herself the Lord’s humble servant (cf. Lk 1:38)." - Pope Francis, 2016.

  • Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving

    • The Lenten season begins with Ash Wednesday on Feb. 22 During Lent, we are asked to devote ourselves to seeking the Lord in prayer and reading Scripture, to service by giving alms, and to practice self-control through fasting. Many know of the tradition of abstaining from meat on Fridays during Lent, but we are also called to practice self-discipline and fast in other ways throughout the season. Contemplate the meaning and origins of the Lenten fasting tradition in this reflection. In addition, the giving of alms is one way to share God's gifts—not only through the distribution of money, but through the sharing of our time and talents. As St. John Chrysostom reminds us: "Not to enable the poor to share in our goods is to steal from them and deprive them of life. The goods we possess are not ours, but theirs." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2446). 

      The United States Bishops state that ASH WEDNESDAY and GOOD FRIDAY are days of fasting and abstinence, while ALL FRIDAYS DURING LENT are days of abstinence.

      FASTING is to be observed by people 18 years of age and older, who have not yet celebrated their 59th birthday. On a fast day, one full meal is allowed. Two other meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to each one's needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eathing between meals is not permitted, but liquids, including milk and juices, is allowed. 

      ABSTINENCE is observed by people 14 years of age and older. On days of abstinence, no meat is allowed. Note tha twhen health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. When in doubt concerning fasting or abstinence, consult your pastor.
