Good Friday is a day to really lean into sacrifice and deep prayer. We must set aside the world and focus in on the great sacrifice God made for us, to save us from our sins and open Heaven. And today is a perfect day to fast beyond what is required by the Church:
Requirements
1. You are allowed one main meal and two smaller snacks that do not equal a meal (18-59)
2. Abstain from meat (14 and up)

The thing is, we can do more than the minimum. We can access the abundant grace available this day to mortify ourselves. Let this be your final push! Cry out to Our Lord to free you from your dominant vice, from fear, worry, lust, anger. Join your sacrifice to His and get uncomfortable. It's just one day.
Clean Fast
- Plain water (sparkling if NO added flavors) *San Pellegrino
- Plain coffee (no added flavors)
- Plain tea (just tea leaves)
NO: gum, mints, food, beverages (other than above) *but yes, you can brush your teeth! ;)
- Redmonds Real Salt: www.amazon.com...
NOTE
- If you have a medical condition, are pregnant, nursing, or are under 18 years old, please follow the guidance of the Church and sacrifice in other ways. There are endless ways to mortify ourselves. Choose silence, complete silence. Choose simple foods. Be last. Offer the best to another. Any kind of act of love that causes your attachment or pride pain, do that instead of fasting.
