Abstain from Meat on Fridays During Lent

All the Fridays of Lent are days of abstinence from meat. This includes funeral luncheons. Since meat is so plentiful and enjoyable in our culture, it becomes the perfect object for penance. Abstinence means no meat.

Fasting means one full meal, two smaller meals, and nothing in between meals on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.
