It is a year of forgiveness of sins and also the punishment due to sin, it is a year of reconciliation between adversaries, of conversion and receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and consequently of solidarity, hope, justice, commitment to serve God with joy and in peace with our brothers and sisters. A Jubilee year is above all the year of Christ, who brings life and grace to humanity.

Parish News Lenten Schedule Ash Wednesday is February 10th a day of fast and abstinence Mass with distribution of Ashes 9am, 12 Noon Masses in English 6:30pm bi-lingual Mass Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of fast and abstinence. Fridays of Lent are also days of abstinence. Fasting is observed by all Catholics 18 to 59 years of age. On a fast day one full meal is allowed. Two other meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken to each one s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted, but liquids, including milk and juices, are allowed. Abstinence is observed by all 14 years of age and older. On days of abstinence no meat is allowed. Note that when health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not require adherence. When in doubt concerning fast and abstinence, consult the pastor. Fasting, almsgiving, and prayer are the three traditional disciplines of Lent. The faithful and catechumens should undertake these practices seriously in a spirit of penance and of preparation for Baptism or renewal of Baptism at Easter. Lenten Parish Mission by Fr. Herald J.
