Lenten Wisdom from St. Leo the Great We have been taught by our Redeemer, “man does not live by bread alone, but on every word of God,” and so it is right that all Christians, no matter how much they fast, should cultivate the desire to satisfy themselves with the “Word of God” rather than bodily food. Therefore, let us begin this Lenten season with eagerness, ready to progress in devotion to our Lord, not by an empty fasting or almsgiving, but through generous compassion and good will. Let works of mercy be our delight, and let them be the food that fills us for eternity. Let us rejoice in the satisfaction of the poor when we give from our bounty. Let us delight in the clothing of those whose nakedness we have covered. Let our compassion and generosity touch the sick in their illness or infirmities, the exiles in their hardships, the orphans in their destitution, and the widows in their sadness … No one’s income is small, whose heart is big; and the measure of one’s mercy and goodness does not depend on the size of one’s means. Wealth of goodwill is never lacking, even in a slender purse. Lenten observances, rightly followed, can make hatred turn into affection and enmity turn to peace; wrath can be quenched by meekness, and wrongs forgiven by gentleness. They are a way that God’s mercy can enter your life, sins be forgiven, and Easter be rightly celebrated. So we should forgive faults, loosen bonds, wipe out offenses, and let go of vengeance. In this way, the Easter festival will find us all happy and innocent by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ who with the Father and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns forever. The Word Among Us, Lenten edition Spirituality Friday Eucharistic Adoration Second Friday, March 13 You have been chosen and called to come to the presence of the Lord. When we listen to the Lord we become open to what He calls us to be. Come and be before the Lord and listen for His message to you. We will be providing this beautiful opportunity for you to come into the Presence of our Lord on the Second Friday of every month after the 8:15am Mass until 3:00pm for the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. Come and be with our Blessed Lord. He is waiting for you. He seeks your presence and your love. It is a gift that can transform our very life. If you are interested and available to commit to a monthly Holy Hour, please contact Leslie Penny at [email protected] or call Lee Ann Rivera at the Parish Office at (973) 744-2850, x5060.

The days of both Fast and Abstinence during Lent are Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. If possible, the fast on Good Friday is continued until the Easter Vigil (on Holy Saturday night) as the “paschal fast” to honor the suffering and death of the Lord Jesus, and to prepare ourselves to share more fully and to celebrate more readily His Resurrection. The other Fridays of Lent are days of Abstinence. i On a day of Fast, only one (1) full meal is permitted, and two smaller meals, which, if added together, would not exceed the main meal in quantity. i Those between the ages of 18 and 59 are obliged to fast. Those who have reached the age of 14 are obliged by the law of abstinence. 2. The obligation to observe the laws of Fast and Abstinence “substantially”, or as a whole, is a serious obligation. 3. The Fridays of the year, outside of Lent, are designated as days of penance, but each individual may substitute for the traditional abstinence from meat some other practice of voluntary self-denial as penance. 4. The time for fulfilling the Pascal Precept (Easter Duty*) extends from the First Sunday of Lent, February 22, 2015, to The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, May 31, 2015. *Canon 920, §1.
