Good Fridays is a day of both fasting and abstinence, on which those aged 14+ are obliged to abstain from eating meat and those 18-59 are obliged to observe a fast, which allows one full meal and two smaller meals which, when added together, would not equal a full meal. Fasting is optional but encouraged through the start of the Easter Vigil on Saturday evening.
For medical or other serious reasons, these obligations may be waived. Children are not required to fast, but their parents are bound to ensure they are educated in the practice of fasting

Almsgiving Opportunities
PREPARES Clothing + Accessories Drive
PREPARES is holding a children’s clothing & accessories donation drive. Prepares is a statewide initiative of the Catholic Bishops of Washington State to support and affirm families of children from birth to the fifth year. We have cribs in the church vestibule from March 18 through March 26 to accept donations of items for children from 0 - 5 years. Items needed include diapers (Sizes newborn to 5), wipes, socks, pajamas or sleepers, baby bottles, bathing & hygiene needs, blankets, bibs, pacifiers, "stuffies", infant rattles. Please bring new items to place in the cribs in the vestibule.
Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land
This is a collection taken up as we leave the church in silence following the Good Friday liturgy at 7pm. These donations go towards upkeep of the shrines in the Holy Land and are a very necessary part of helping to ensure sacred places in far off lands are maintained properly. Look for a "Good Friday" envelope in your monthly sacrificial giving packet for this collection.
Society of St. Vincent de Paul
Our parish-based St. Vincent de Paul Society provides for those in need: monthly food baskets, clothing and furniture vouchers, bus tickets, prescription help, car repair assistance, utility bill payments, and rental assistance. To donate, parishioners can use the special envelope provided in their monthly packet or by selecting “St. Vincent de Paul” when donating online through the parish website.
