>Clarification on Lenten Fasting
A few days ago I put up a post citing the canon law regarding fasting and abstinence for Lent. Some faithful readers complained that the part on fasting wasn’t clear. the Deacon Carl Thelin graciously provided an easy summary. He writes:
Probably the best direction concerning Fast and Abstinence is:
- Fasting everyone 18 thru 59th birthday.
- Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are both fast and abstinence.
- All Fridays of Lent are days of abstinence for those 14 and older.
I sincerely apologize if anyone was confused. I hope Deacon Thelin’s summary above is helpful.
