Lenten Disciplines of Fasting & Abstinence

Back

Wednesday, March 1, 2023

Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are obligatory days of fasting and abstinence for Catholics. In addition, Fridays during Lent are obligatory days of abstinence (that is, to abstain from meat and items made with meat). For members of the Latin Catholic Church, the norms on fasting are obligatory from age 18 until age 59.

When fasting, a person is permitted to eat one full meal, as well as two smaller meals that together are not equal to a full meal. The norms concerning abstinence from meat are binding upon members of the Latin Catholic Church from age 14 onwards.


Disciplinas Cuaresmales de Ayuno y Abstinencia

El Miércoles de Ceniza y el Viernes Santo son días obligatorios de ayuno y abstinencia para los católicos. Además, los viernes durante la Cuaresma son días obligatorios de abstinencia (abstenerse de carne y artículos que contienen carne). Para los miembros de la Iglesia de rito latino, las normas son obligatorias desde la edad de 18 años hasta los 59.

Cuando se ayuna, se le permite a la persona comer una comida completa, así como dos comidas más pequeñas que juntas no equivalgan a una comida completa. Las normas sobre la abstinencia de carne son vinculantes para los miembros de la Iglesia Católica de rito latino desde los 14 años en adelante.
