On weekdays of Lent there is no obligation to fast. However, voluntary acts of self-denial are recommended. Voluntary self-denial may include, in addition to fasting daily Mass, Spiritual Studies, Lenten Devotions, Stations of the Cross, saying the Rosary, deeds of kindness and mercy. Good Friday is a day of fast and abstinence. Limit one full meal for all who have completed their 18 th year and have not reached their 60th year. In Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. LORD JESUS, help me to recognize my sins and to ask for forgiveness.
