Abstinence The law of abstinence requires a Catholic 14 years of age until death to abstain from eating meat on Fridays in honor of the Passion of Jesus on Good Friday. Meat is considered to be the flesh and organs of mammals and fowl. Also forbidden are soups or gravies made from them. Salt and freshwater species of fish, amphibians, reptiles and shellfish are permitted, as are animal derived products such as margarine and gelatin which do not have any meat taste.

Fasting The law of fasting requires a Catholic from the 18th Birthday (Canon 97) to the 59th Birthday (i.e. the beginning of the 60th year, a year which will be completed on the 60th birthday) to reduce the amount of food eaten from normal. The Church defines this as one meal a day, and two smaller meals which if added together would not exceed the main meal in quantity. Such fasting is obligatory on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. The fast is broken by eating between meals and by drinks which could be considered food (milk shakes, but not milk). Alcoholic beverages do not break the fast;

however, they seem to be contrary to the spirit of doing penance.

Those who are excused from fast or abstinence Besides those outside the age limits, those of unsound mind, the sick, the frail, pregnant or nursing women according to need for meat or nourishment, manual laborers according to need, guests at a meal who cannot excuse themselves without giving great offense or causing enmity and other situations of moral or physical impossibility to observe the penitential discipline.

Your St Thecla Parish Council Needs You

The St Thecla Parish Council has an opening for a Vicariate Pastoral Council representative.

The Vicariate Pastoral Council serves as a representative, collaborative and

consultative body to the parishes, Catholic schools, institutions and agencies, in the ministries of education, service, worship, and stewardship providing continuity of the Archdiocesan mission between its members.

The Vicariate Pastoral Council is comprised of two representatives from each of parish and institution within its vicariate boundaries.

The St Thecla Vicariate representative attends the monthly Central Macomb Vicariate Council meetings, assuring ongoing communication between the Vicariate Pastoral Council and the St Thecla Parish Council, provides ongoing feedback to the Vicariate Council regarding the

pastoral plan, and participates actively upon request in standing and/or ad hoc committees of the Vicariate Pastoral Council.

This is just a reminder that when you submit an article to be published in the bulletin, please be aware that the article may be edited due to length or content.

All articles must be submitted by the given deadline (7 days prior to bulletin date you want your article to be published.)

Thank you,

How exciting that we will soon be using our new Gather 3^rd Edition Hymnals – just in time for Easter! Our donation envelopes have also arrived, and for the low, low price of $20.00, you can donate or dedicate a hymnal in the memory of a loved one or an occasion!

You can pick up a special envelope available at each entrance to the church or in the Parish office, fill it out (please include your phone number*) and put your donation inside ($20.00 per hymnal). There are three ways you can turn in donation money:

1. Turn it in with your Sunday contribution.

2. Mail it in or drop it off at the Parish Office, or

3. Stop by our fundraising table on March 21 and 22 after each mass that weekend. Choir members and I will be set up in the Gathering Space where we can help fill out envelopes and collect donations.

*It is important that you put your phone number on the envelope somewhere in case we have a question or cannot read your dedication.

It will probably take us a few weeks to process all the bookplates and collate all our donations, so please be patient – it’s a lot of custom printing for us to do! When we have affixed the bookplate with your dedication to the inside front cover of a hymnal, it will go directly into one of the pews. Perhaps one day, you will come to mass and might just sit right in front of the one you donated!

We will be publishing a list of donors in the bulletin as a way to say Thank You for sponsoring a book, but also to confirm that we have received your donation. If you have made a donation and do not see your name in the bulletin after 3 weeks have gone by, please call the office to make sure we have received your envelope. Please allow 3-4 weeks after turning in your donation before calling the office; due to early printing deadlines, your name will NOT be in the bulletin the weekend immediately following your donation.

If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to talk to me – in person or email!

Keep singing!
