In both parishes, the dinners continue to be successful and it is because of the hard work of everyone that makes this happen. Thank you so much.

Fasting means having only one full meal to maintain one’s strength. Two smaller, meatless and penitential meals are permitted according to one’s needs, but they should not together equal the one full meal. Eating solid foods between meals is not permitted. Catholics from age 18 through 59 are bound to fast. Again, invalids, pregnant and nursing mothers are exempt.
