Year A: 2nd Sunday of Lent Sunday, March 12, 2017 2

2nd Sunday of Lent March 12, 2017

Something to think about this Lent: News from

the developing world often gets swallowed up by

political drama and entertainment news here at home.

During Lent we are encouraged to fast, and last week

we walked in the desert as Jesus fasted. But do you

know about some of the world's poor who aren't fast-

ing for spiritual reasons, but simply don't have food?

A persistent drought has left nearly 23 million

people across the Horn of Africa without enough to

eat. In South Sudan, hundreds of thousands are trying

to survive famine. Nearly half the country—or 4.9

million people—are now going hungry. That number

will grow when the “lean season” arrives in July, just

before harvest and as food reserves have been ex-

hausted.

The world’s last declared famine, which lasted

from 2010 to 2012 in Somalia, resulted in 260,000

deaths.

The drought is compounded by decades of vio-

lence that many hoped would end in 2011 with the

country’s independence. Instead, a civil war broke

out, and millions have been forced from their homes

Meanwhile, in Somalia, also plagued by decades

of civil unrest, the newly elected government has de-

clared the current drought a national emergency, with

rains over the past 2 years that have been either insuf-

Nations is warning that without enough rain by the

end of April, famine is likely there too.

The Red Cross in Kenya says 2.9 million people

are facing severe hunger. And in Ethiopia, 5.6 million

people will be dependent on food aid until the next

harvest.

Catholic Relief Services is providing food assis-

tance to hundreds of thousands of people in Jonglei

State, where there is severe hunger, but famine has

not been declared. “There’s really only a marginal dif-

vides food in exchange for labor to build community

infrastructure such as dikes and roads, and we supply

direct food aid when violence prevents work on these

projects.

Lenten Practices

Catholics are encouraged in Lent to cultivate three re-

ligious practices: fasting and abstinence, prayer, and

almsgiving. The purpose of our Lenten practices is to

When do we fast?

Catholics between the ages of 18 and 59 are required to

fast. This means that on these days we eat only one full

meal, with no food between meals. It is understood that if

one eats three meals a day, the two other meals should not

total one full meal. Of course, everyone is free to fast at
