Trócaire Fast Information:
This year’s Fast encourages people to ‘Give it up for Trócaire’ on the
4th /5th March in support of the people in the world who have to go to bed hungry every
night.
What you give up for a day is up to you - food, your phone, coffee, tv or even a bad
habit. What is important is that people ’Give it up for Trócaire’ on March 4th
and 5th and ask family or colleagues to sponsor them. The efforts of people here at home
make an enormous difference to the lives of some of the world’s poorest families and
communities.
To order your Fast pack log on to www.trocaire.org/fast where you can set up your own
sponsorship page, Call 1850408408 or text Fast4 to 51727.

Teacher, what good must I do to have eternal life?
To the young man who asked this question, Jesus answered, ’If you would enter into
life, keep the commandments’, and then he added, ’Come, follow Me’ (
Matthew 19:16-21). To follow Jesus involves keeping the commandments. The law has not been
abolished but man is invited to rediscover it in the Person of the divine Master who
realised it perfectly in himself, revealed its full meaning and attested to its permanent
validity.
How did Jesus interpret the Law?
Jesus interpreted the Law in the light of the twofold yet single commandment of love,
the fullness of the Law: ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and
with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment.
And the second is like it : ’You shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two
commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets. ( Matthew 22:37-40) Catechism of the
Catholic Church
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
- I am the LORD your God: you shall not have strange Gods before me.
- You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
- Remember to keep holy the Lord’s day.
- Honour your father and your mother.
- You shall not kill.
- You shall not commit adultery.
- You shall not steal.
- You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.
- You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife.
- You shall not covet your neighbour’s goods.
