The Altar flowers this week are: “In Loving Memory of Lorraine Foppiano by Her Loving Husband, Richard.” Each child is sent into this world by God with a unique message to deliver, a new song to sing, a personal act of love to bestow. Abortion destroys God’s plan for that child to affect the world. Catechism Question 69. How do the soul and body form a unity in the human being? The human person is a being at once corporeal and spiritual. In man spirit and matter form one nature. This unity is so profound that, thanks to the spiritual principle which is the soul, the body which material, becomes a living human body and participates in the dignity of the image of God.

Fasting & Abstinence Regulations for Lent Ash Wednesday, February 13th and Good Friday, March 29th are days of fast and abstinence. Fridays of Lent are also days of abstinence. Fasting is to be observed by all 18 years of age through age 59. 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. Eating between meals is not permitted, but liquids, including milk and juices, are allowed. Abstinence is observed by all 14 years of age and older. On days of abstinence, no meat is allowed. Note that when health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. When in doubt concerning fast and abstinence, the parish priest should be consulted. Fasting, Almsgiving and Prayer are the three disciplines of Lent. The faithful and catechumens should undertake these practices seriously in a spirit of penance and of preparation for baptism or of renewal of baptism at Easter.

Our goal should be to emerge from 40 days of fasting and abstinence closer to Christ. There is and isn’t a simple answer to what we should do for Lent. The simple answer is “give up something that will bring you closer to Christ.” If that’s chocolate, awesome! If it’s some kind of habitual sin, give it up for good and allow Lent to be your starting point. The un-simple answer is “what brings us closer to Christ, is often different for each individual.” For some it might be adding something to their day like 5 minutes of prayer or a ritual of thanking God for their blessings. Be prepared for Lent and start by asking yourself and God, “What can I commit to over 40 days that will bring me closer to Jesus?” Take time this week and pray with that question.
