Common Questions about the Season of Lent
Q. Why do we say that there are forty days of Lent? When you count all the days from Ash Wednesday through Holy Saturday, there are 46.
A. It might be more accurate to say that there is the "forty day fast within Lent." Historically, Lent has varied from a week to three weeks to the present configuration of 46 days. The forty day fast, however, has been more stable. The Sundays of Lent are certainly part of the Time of Lent, but they are not prescribed days of fast and abstinence.
Q. So does that mean that when we give some-thing up for Lent, such as candy, we can have it on Sundays? A. Apart from the prescribed days of fast and abstinence on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, and the days of abstinence every Friday of Lent, Catholics have traditionally chosen additional penitential practices for the whole Time of Lent. These practices are disciplinary in nature and often more effective if they are continuous, i.e., kept on Sundays as well. That being said, such practices are not regulated by the Church, but by individual conscience.
Q. I understand that Catholics ages 18 to 59 should fast on Ash Wednesday and on Good Fri-day, 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. Liq-uids are allowed at any time, but no solid food should be consumed between meals. Q. Are there exemptions other than for age from the requirement to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday? A. Those that are excused from fast and abstinence outside the age limits include the physically or mentally ill including individuals suffering from chronic illnesses such as diabetes. Also excluded are pregnant or nursing women. In all cases, common sense should prevail, and ill persons should not further jeopardize their health by fasting.
60th Anniversary Capital Campaign
Since September 2019, we have been planning a
capital campaign for St. Bartholomew in support of our parish facilities. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to delay the start of this
initiative until we could gather together again as a parish family.
While physical buildings do not make a parish, they are essential to fulfilling the mission of Jesus Christ by welcoming, supporting, and guiding all through prayer, fellowship, worship, and education. We at Saint Bartholomew are committed to the future of our parish, and most especially, our parishioners.
Today, I am pleased to invite you to watch our 60th
Anniversary Campaign Video, and to formally announce the start of this initiative! Our campaign
video, as well as additional material on the campaign, can be found on St. Bartholomew’s
website - https://stbartseb.org.
February 20/21 Regular Collection $18,820.00
Christmas 2020
$59,370.00
Capital Campaign Pledged—$809,463.00 2/23
Thank you for your continued generosity!
