· Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of fast and abstinence.  The Fridays of Lent are days of abstinence. 
· The obligation of abstinence (refraining from eating meat) begins at the age of 14.  The law of
fasting (limiting oneself to one full meal and two lighter meals) obligates all between the ages
of 18-59.  No one should consider this obligation lightly.
· Those individuals who have a medical condition in which fasting may be considered harmful are not obligated to fast, but should perform some other act of penance or charity.
· Pastors and parents are to see to it that minors, though not bound by law of fast and abstinence, are educated in the authentic sense of penance and encouraged to do acts of penance or
charity.
· All members of the Christian Faithful are encouraged to do acts of penance and charity during
the Lenten season beyond what is prescribed by the Law.
· As a general rule, a request for a dispensation from the obligation of abstinence on Fridays of Lent will not be considered unless some serious reason is present.  The attendance of social events, banquets, wedding rehearsals or receptions are not considered sufficient reason to
request a dispensation.
