    Lenten Fast and Abstinence– During the season of Lent, the church urges the faithful to reflect a spirit of penance in their daily lives through performing acts of faith and abstinence.
     
    Fasting requires that only one full meal be taken per day.  Two other smaller meals may be taken during the day to maintain physical strength, but these two meals together should not equal a full meal in quantity, nor is their eating between meals. Fasting obliges all those who have reached the age of 18 and continues through age 59.  Those who are not specifically obliged to fast are encouraged to join in the discipline of fasting to the extent that they are able.
     
    Abstinence  prohibits individuals from eating meat on a particular day.  Abstinence obliges all those who have reached the  age of 14 and continues to oblige throughout their lives.  Those who are not specifically obliged to abstain from eating meat are encouraged to join in the discipline of abstaining to the extent that they are able.
    GOOD FRIDAY IS A DAY OF FAST AND ABSTINENCE.
    FRIDAYS IN LENT ARE DAY OF ABSTINENCE.
