FastingFasting is limiting yourself to one full meal a day. Other meals during the day should not equal that one full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted. Fasting is a common practice during Lent but is obligatory on both AshWednesday and Good Friday for those between the ages of 18 and 59.
AbstinenceAbstinence is refraining from meat and expensive foods on Ash Wednesday and all the Fridays of Lent. Thisobliges everyone over the age of 14.
Easter DutyCatholics are obliged to receive Holy Communion at least once during the Easter Season (from Ash Wednesdayto Trinity Sunday). Anyone who has committed a mortal sin is also obliged to go to Confession prior to receivingCommunion.
Lenten PracticesThere is a tradition that we do something different during Lent. The tradition suggests that this be something inaddition to what we ordinarily do. Some common practices are going to daily Mass during Lent (or at least oneextra day a week), going to Confession, participating in the Holy Week liturgies or some form of almsgiving (suchas the mite can which can be used to collect any monies saved by fasting and donated to the poor at the endof Lent).
