REGULATIONS:
Good Friday is a day of fasting. Catholics
who are ages 18 to 59 are obliged to fast,

lesser meals, with nothing to eat in between
meals. Drinking fluids would not be contrary

The Fridays of Lent and Good Friday are
days of abstaining from meat.
All
Catholics who are 14 years of age and
older are obliged to abstain from eating
meat.

STEWARDSHIP:
I will draw everyone to
myself! Throughout Lent
we’ve been hearing how
Jesus explained the
reason for his coming, to
save us from the slavery
of sin. The more we accept and understand
the mystery of our Lord’s unfailing love for
us, the more we want to get closer to him. It
is, as the prophet Jeremiah said, written on
our hearts. We understand what Jesus was
trying to tell his disciples because we know
about his passion, death and resurrection.
But we sometimes forget the message of the
Gospel delivered by Christ. The Kingdom of
Heaven is at hand. God is with us and we
only have to approach the Son to know the
Father. May the love we experience
empower us to turn our hearts over to God!
