Catechumens are led to the Sacraments ofInitiation by means of the Rite of Election, thescrutinies, and Catechesis. The faithful, listeningmore intently to the word of God and devotingthemselves to prayer, are prepared through a spiritof repentance to renew their baptismal promised.Lenten Meditation: “O my Beloved, no one had theright over You and yet You obeyed not only theBlessed Virgin and St. Joseph, but even Your executioners. Now in the Sacred Host I see You at theheight of Your annihilations. How humble You are,O divine King of Glory.” (St. Therese of Lisieux)Weekdays of Lent: There is no obligation tofast. However, voluntary acts of self-denial arerecommended.SAsh Wednesday and Good Friday: These aredays of Fast and Abstinence from meat.
