Do not forget to fast tomorrow

"You cannot do anything to glorify God more, nor profit your soul more, than by devoutly assisting at Mass, and assisting as often as possible" -St. Peter Julian Eymard

"My confidence is placed in God who does not need our help for accomplishing his designs. Our single endeavor should be to give ourselves to the work and to be faithful to him, and not to spoil his work by our shortcomings." Blessed Feast of St. Isaac Jogues

Today marks the 35th anniversary of the formation of the Priestly Society of St. Peter ✝️

"According to the traditional Catholic method of fasting, one may eat “one full meal” each day with meat included, plus two smaller meatless meals, both of which together do not equal the one full meal. No eating between meals is allowed, although drinking beverages such as coffee and tea are allowed and are not considered to break the fast." -Baltimore Catechism II, 395 Q
