Giving Up Meat on Friday
By Rev. John Broussard, C.P.M. It has been a long-standing tradition in the Church that during the Fridays of Lent Catholics all over the world abstain from eating flesh meat products. Somewhat less well known is the fact that before the Second Vatican Council, Catholics also gave up meat every Friday of the year, not just during Lent. A common question that gets asked is, “do I still need to give up meat on Fridays every day of the year or did that change after the Second Vatican Council?” The answer to this question is: yes and no.

IN THE NEWS: Marian Apparitions From Around The World (Blessed Is She)
While hanging on the Cross and obtaining our salvation, our gracious Lord made the effort to turn our attention toward His Mother. In addition, He instructed her to behold His disciples as her own sons and daughters. While He is her first born, all of mankind is her second born. Christ commanded the fostering of this relationship from the Cross because there is a tie within it to the graces of salvation. As always, Mary was obedient to her Son. Viewing all of humanity as her beloved children, the Blessed Virgin is a perfect mother. She loves, supports, and encourages her children, respecting their free will, but also beckoning them towards all that is good, true, and beautiful: namely, her Son.
