Fasting and abstinence during Lent

Fasting means that we eat only one full meatless meal and two smaller meals with no snacking between meals. This obligation is applied on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. This law applies to Catholics aged 18-59.

Abstinence means that we eat no meat (including poultry) or meat by-products.

We observe abstinence from meat on Ash Wednesday and all Fridays in Lent. This applies to all Catholics over the age of 14.  If you are ill or have particular medical conditions, or are pregnant, you are not obligated to observe these regulations.
