CATHOLIC FAITHLINK: #Catholic #Mass #Readings: Friday after Ash Wednesday 3.3.17 – USCCB/NABRV

Historic Bible

“Thus says the Lord #GOD: Cry out full-throated and unsparingly, lift up your voice like a trumpet blast; Tell my people their wickedness, and the house of Jacob their sins. … This, rather, is the fasting that I wish: releasing those bound unjustly, untying the thongs of the yoke; Setting free the oppressed, breaking every yoke; Sharing your bread with the hungry, sheltering the oppressed and the homeless; Clothing the naked when you see them, and not turning your back on your own. Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and your wound shall quickly be healed; Your vindication shall go before you, and the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer, you shall cry for help, and he will say: Here I am!”

Historic Bible

“‘The Son of Man must suffer greatly and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be Raised. … ‘If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me. … whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it. What profit is there for one to gain the whole world yet lose or forfeit himself?'”

CATHOLIC FAITHLINK: “Questions And Answers About Lent And Lenten Practices” – USCCB

Cross Atop Rocky Cliff

“… Q.  I understand that Catholics ages 18 to 59 should fast on Ash Wednesday and on Good Friday, but what exactly are the rules for these fasts?

A.  Fasting on these days means we can have only one full, meatless meal.  Some food can be taken at the other regular meal times if necessary, but combined they should be less than a full meal.  Liquids are allowed at any time, but no solid food should be consumed between meals. …”

Historic Bible

“Even now, says the LORD, return to Me with your whole heart, with fasting, and weeping, and mourning; Rend your hearts, not your garments, and return to the LORD, your #God. For gracious and Merciful is He, slow to anger, rich in kindness, and relenting in punishment. …”
