"required Easter duty?"


such as what?

[Bernard]

In the Catholic religion, people have an Easter duty to receive communion within a range of time before and after Easter. I think it's 40 days before and after - from the beginning of Lent to the feast of the Ascension.

So, if this woman is Catholic, either she needs to received communion during this time period or she needs some kind of dispensation.

At least, that's how the rules were explained to me many years ago in Catechism class.

Easter tide is the 50 days within which every Catholic is to receive Communion after going to Confession. (The Sacrament of Reconciliation)
