In Lent, we focus on the works of prayer, fasting and charitable giving. Reflecting on our parish Mission Statement: “St. Mark’s Roman Catholic Church… Called by God’s Love to live the life of Jesus in our world.” we have many opportunities to grow in relationship with Christ.
LENTEN FAST applies to Ash Wednesday and Good Friday and applies to all Catholics who have completed their 18th birthday until they have completed their 59th year. “Fasting means taking only one full meal and two smaller meals that, taken together, do not equal one full meal.”
LENTEN ABSTINENCE applies to Ash Wednesday, Good Friday and the Fridays of Lent. All Catholics who are 14 years of age or older are to refrain from eating meat or meat products on these days. (This does not apply to fish, eggs, or milk products.)
