Fast and Abstinence~ Acts of Penance
The Bishops of the Unites States prescribe, as minimal obligation, that all persons who are fourteen years of age and older are bound to abstain from eating meat on Ash Wednesday, February 17, on all Fridays in Lent, and Good Friday.
Further, all persons eighteen years of age and older, up to and including their fifty-ninth birthday, are bound to fast by limiting themselves to a single meal on Ash Wednesday and on Good Friday, while the other two meals on those days are to be light.
All the faithful are encouraged, when possible, to participate at Mass, and to receive the Holy Eucharist daily, to celebrate frequently the Sacrament of Penance, to undertake spiritual reading, especially the Sacred Scriptures, and to participate in parish Lenten devotions. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament , is especially recommended.
