Wednesday, March 5 is Ash Wednesday. We will be having Masses at 8am and 7:30pm in the church. Ashes will be distributed at Mass.
Reminder: Today is a day of Fast and Abstinence.
Ash Wednesday and all Fridays during Lent are days of abstinence from all meat. Except for a serious reason, all persons 14 years old and above are bound by this law.
Ash Wednesday & Good Friday are also days of fast. Those of age 18 until the day after one’s 59th birthday are bound by this law. On these two days, one full meatless meal may be eaten. Two other meatless meals may also be taken sufficient to maintain strength, but together they should not equal a full meal. Liquids, including milk and fruit juices may be taken between meals. If health or ability to work is affected, the law does not oblige.
