                    [Summary] => During the homily of the Ash Wednesday Mass some weeks ago, the priest expounded on what was expected of us Catholics at Holy Week. Naturally, first and foremost was the issue of abstaining (mainly from meat) and fasting. Though it is only on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday that we are obliged to abstain from eating meat, it is nevertheless suggested that we make voluntary "sacrifices" during the 40 days of Lent.
