Regulations for Lent and the Easter Triduum
Lent is the principal season of penance in the Christian year. Priests, religious and laity are strongly urged to develop and follow a program of voluntary self-denial, attentiveness to prayer, and especially to works of charity and mercy.
Everyone of 14 years of age or over is bound to
abstain from meat on all the Fridays in Lent.
Everyone 18 years of age and under 59 years of age is bound to fast on Good Friday, April 22, with only one full meatless meal is allowed. Two other meatless meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to each one’s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted on these two days, but liquids including milk and fruit juices
are allowed. When health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. To disregard completely the law of fast and abstinence is a serious matter.
