SUNDAYS- Included in Lent or not?

My Priest says no..So does almost EVERY one else I know who is a Catholic...Also the matj excludes Sun.BUT....

My dad (he is very controlling anyway) says yes....

Input?

BTW- THIS year I have allowed myself to read and NOT log in which is WAY tougher than just avoiding the q...

Miss all of you!{#emotions_dlg.wub}

HOLA, ((( Irshgrl))))

I meant ***math*** above but couldn't edit...

ETA- I hope they are NOT included in what we "sacrifice" or I will be heading the church early tonight...Wink

It's been a BIG debate between a few people in the last few days so I thought I would ask here...

Our nuns told us Sundays were free from what we'd given up.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

It makes sense because otherwise the 40 day doesn't add up...

Re: SUNDAYS- Included in Lent or not?

Sundays in Lent are Free of abstaining days Sundays are a day of celebration. However in my family we do not reguard Sundays as a day off we keep what we have given up. Lent is about sacrifice
