THANK YOU Thanking everyone who sent us cards, I am sorry I could not answer anyone as I was very sick all Winter and I spent sometime in hospital. It is this week that I was allowed to go to Mass but not outside. Thank you and God bless you. Sr. Claire LENTEN FRIDAY ADORATION For ALL Fridays in Lent, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament will be from 10am until 6:45pm followed by Stations at 7pm. And on the First Fridays ONLY (2) there will be Mass following the Stations of the Cross. Fasting and Abstinence during Lent The Church prescribes fasting (only one full meal and two smaller meals which together are not greater than a full meal) and abstinence from meat on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. Catholics aged 18-59 are bound to fast; those 14-59 to abstinence. Those who are ill are freed from these obligations. Everyone, even those above the age of 59, are encouraged to fast and abstain. Parents and educators are reminded of their duty to introduce children gradually to the understanding and practice of penance. Canada's liturgical calendar, the Ordo, specifies that Fridays are special days of abstinence. This includes Fridays of Lent, although Catholics can substitute special acts of charity or piety on these days. Word Among Us Missal Subscriptions The MARCH-LENT copies are here. Please pick up from the Rectory office or about the middle of previous month the missals come in, so after that for a weekend or two, Sharon will have them to give out at the 4:30 Mass, Saturdays and 10am Mass. Thank you.
