, the Catholic Diocese of Dallas has announced its parishioners can eat meat this Friday during Lent.
Canon law requires Catholics who are observing Lent to abstain from eating meat on Fridays. The diocese said earlier this month it is issuing a dispensation to those rules on St. Patrick’s Day. “All Catholics of the Diocese of Dallas, no matter where they may be, and all other Catholics actually present in the Diocese on that day, are dispensed from the obligation to abstain from meat,” the diocese said in a written statement.
The diocese made the decision because St. Patrick’s Day is “a common celebratory day in the United States and locally,” it said. Catholics are not required to use the dispensation and can choose to “continue the laudable practice of abstaining from meat” on Friday, according to the diocese.. Hojun Choi covers breaking news.
