[Salvation]

Day 7 – Mar. 8

The Church says that those who are 14 years old or older should abstain during Lent.  Fasting and abstinence brings us closer to Jesus and reminds us that we are God's special people in the world today.

Day 8 – Mar. 9

Figure out how much your family saves by not eating meat on Friday during Lent.  Put the savings in a special bowl, box, or envelope marked FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE HUNGRY.  At the end of Lent, give the money to an organization or mission that helps feed starving people (for example, St. Edward's sack lunch program).
