(from March 1, 2017, Ash Wednesday, to the Paschal Triduum)

Abstinence from meat is to be observed by all Catholics 14 years old and older on Ash Wednesday and on all the Fridays of Lent. Fasting is to be observed on Ash Wednesday by all Catholics who are 18 years of age but not yet 59. Those who are bound by this may take only one full meal. Two smaller meals are permitted if necessary to maintain strength according to one‘s needs, but eating solid foods between meals is not permitted. The special Paschal fast, as well as abstinence, are prescribed for Good Friday and encouraged for Holy Saturday. Abstinencia: Todos los católicos mayores de 14 años, deben abstenerse de comer carne el Miércoles de Ceniza y todos los viernes de Cuaresma. El Ayuno debe ser observado el Miércoles de Ceniza por todos los católicos que han-cumplido los dieciocho (18) años pero no han llegado a los cincuenta y nueve (59). Estas personas sólo pueden hacer una comida completa, y dos comidas pequeñas si son necesarias para mantener las fuerzas, de acuerdo a las necesidades individuales, pero no se permite alimento sólido entre las comidas. El ayuno así como la abstinencia Pascual especial obliga el Viernes Santo y es recomendada en el Sábado Santo también. “Lent is ordered to preparing for the celebration of Easter, since the Lenten liturgy prepares for celebration of the Paschal Mystery both catechumens, by the various stages of Christian Initiation, and the faithful, who recall their own Baptism and do penance.” (Universal Norms on the Liturgical Year, #27) By the threefold discipline of fasting, almsgiving and prayer the church keeps Lent from Ash Wednesday until the evening of Holy Thursday. All of the faithful and the catechumens should undertake the serious practice of these three traditions. Failure to observe penitential days totally or a substantial number of such days must be considered serious. “(On) weekdays of Lent, we strongly recommend participation in daily Mass and self-imposed observances of fasting. In light of grave human needs which weigh on the Christian conscience in all seasons, we urge particularly during Lent, generosity to local, national and world programs of sharing of all things needed to translate our duty to penance into a means of implementing the right of the poor to their part of our abundance.” (U.S. Bishops statement on penitential observances, 1966.)

LOSS Mass Loving Outreach to Survivors of Suicide Mass

On Saturday, March 18 at 11 a.m., St. Gertrude Catholic Church will host a Mass in partnership with the Archdiocese of Chicago Catholic Charities Loving Outreach to Survivors of Suicide (LOSS) Ministry. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US, claiming the lives of more than 44,000 Americans each year*. The effect of suicide reaches beyond family and friends, often leaving individuals with questions and nowhere to turn. LOSS offers hope and healing for those who mourn a loss to suicide. They provide counseling for individuals and families, a network of survivors, and education about the grieving process. This LOSS Mass is a unique opportunity for the community to come together and pray for those mourning a loss, for those who have lost their life, and for a greater understanding of respect life. Father Charles Rubey will preside at the Mass and speak about the LOSS ministry. To learn more about Catholic Charities LOSS ministry, please visit http://www.catholiccharities.net/GetHelp/OurServices/Counseling/Loss.aspx. The LOSS Mass is sponsored by parishes in Vicariate II, Deanery B.
