Fasting during Lent (Third Sunday of Lent)
“This is the fasting that I wish: releasing those bound unjustly, setting free the oppressed, breaking every yoke, sharing your bread with the hungry, sheltering the oppressed and the homeless; clothing the naked when you see them, and not turning your back on your own.

Then you shall call and the Lord will answer, you shall cry for help, and he will say: Here I am!” (Isaiah 58:1-9a)
