This is a wonderful way to begin our observance of Lent by gathering as a parish family. Come and join us. Fasting means eating approximately the equivalent of one full meal during the course of the day. Abstinence also applies on Ash Wednesday. Friday abstinence means avoiding meat.
Meat includes poultry.
Fish and seafood are permitted. Obviously exemptions are made to both fasting and abstinence for reasons of health. If you have a question please call the parish office. All nurses and those in related health care fields are invited to attend. For further information, please call Ruth Gordon.
