Eat only one meal and two "snacks" which together are less than a full meal. All healthy Catholics from age 18-59 are expected to observe this practice on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.

All healthy Catholics over the age of 14 are expected to abstain from eathing meat on Ash Wednesday, all Fridays in Lent and on Good Friday of Holy Week. Abstinence includes all meat, but consuming eggs, milk products or condiments made of animal fat is permitted.

Jesus teaches that giving alms means making the needs of others our own, especially the needy of our world. Almsgiving is not just for the wealthy. We all have something material to give. Donate personal possessions, donate food, donate money. The faithful also are encouraged to donate their time in service to the poor. We encourage you to participate in the CRS Operation Rice Bowl.
