Catholics must give up something on Friday in observing the day of the week when Our Blessed Lord endured His passion and death to accomplish our salvation. Meat is the required abstinence year round, but outside of Lent, another practice may be substituted for it in countries which have gotten a dispensation from the Vatican.
