Those who are bound to fast may take only one full meal. Two smaller meals are permitted if necessary to maintain strength according to each one’s needs, but eating between meals is NOT PERMITTED. Abstinence from meat is to be observed by all Catholics 14 years or older on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday and on all Fridays of Lent. The determination of certain days as obligatory days of penance should not be understood as limiting the occasions for Christian penance. Way of the Cross The Way of the Cross will be celebrated every Friday evening during Lent immediately following the 6 p.m. Mass. This traditional journey to Calvary, using the texts from Holy Scripture, has been a consolation and source of faith and grace to many. The Church grants to those who participate in the Way of the Cross a plenary indulgence.
