While there is no additional fasting or abstinence requirement during the Lenten Ember Days beyond the obligatory abstinence from meat on Fridays during Lent for all Catholics age 14 and above, the Ember Days are always a time of prayer, especially for seminarians.

This Sunday is Bambinelli Sunday

Each year on the 3rd Sunday of Advent, Gaudete Sunday, children in Rome gather with their families in St. Peter’s Square for Benedizione dei Bambinelli, bringing with them the Christ Child figurine from their family’s home crèche. At the noon Angelus, the Pope blesses the children, their families, and the figurines they have brought. This Sunday we will unite our hearts to the Holy Father’s and the children and families gathered with him and bless our own Bambinelli. Bring your Christ Child figurine to be blessed during Mass this Sunday.
